Product details
Overview
SI8275DAD-IM1 from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel isolated gate driver IC designed for high-reliability MOSFET/IGBT/SiC/GaN half-bridge and dual-switch applications. It delivers 4 A peak output current per channel, supports 2.5 kVRMS isolation (UL1577), achieves ≤60 ns propagation delay, and operates across –40 to +125 °C with input supply range 2.5–5.5 V and driver supply range 4.2–30 V.
For engineers reviewing the SI8275DAD-IM1 datasheet, SI8275DAD-IM1 pinout, SI8275DAD-IM1 application, or SI8275DAD-IM1 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, exact pin functions for SOIC-16 packaging, confirmed dual-driver timing behavior, automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification, and validated alternatives for isolated gate drive in inverters, motor controls, and onboard chargers.
Technical Context
The SI8275DAD-IM1 implements two independent isolated channels using Skyworks' proprietary RF-based silicon isolation barrier, each with TTL-compatible digital inputs (VIA/VIB), dedicated enable (EN), and separate pull-up/pull-down outputs (VOA/VOB) enabling precise slew rate control. No internal dead-time programming or overlap protection is implemented-unlike Si8273/Si8274-making it suitable for synchronous dual-drive or independent high-side/low-side configurations requiring full input control.
Each channel features independent undervoltage lockout (UVLO) monitoring on both input (VDDI) and output (VDDA/VDDB) supplies, with UVLO thresholds of 2.1 V (falling) and 2.3 V (rising) for VDDI, and 3.9 V/4.1 V for VDDx. Outputs default low during UVLO and remain latched until all supplies exceed thresholds and tSTART (≥10 µs) elapses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Withstand Voltage | 2.5 kVRMS per UL1577 - enables reinforced insulation in 1000 V DC bus systems |
| Peak Output Current | 4 A per channel - drives high-gate-charge SiC FETs (e.g., 100 nC) at ≥100 kHz with <10 Ω external gate resistor |
| Propagation Delay | ≤60 ns max - supports switching frequencies up to 2 MHz with tight timing control |
| CMTI | 200 kV/µs - maintains signal integrity in high-dV/dt environments like traction inverters |
| Supply Range | VDDI: 2.5–5.5 V; VDDA/VDDB: 4.2–30 V - interfaces directly with 3.3 V/5 V controllers and 12–24 V gate supplies |
| Operating Temperature | –40 to +125 °C - qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Qualified - meets stress test requirements for automotive power electronics including OBC and BMS |
Pinout & Package
SI8275DAD-IM1 is housed in a 16-pin SOIC package with creepage/clearance compliant to reinforced insulation standards. Pin 1 is marked via laser top-side marking; the package is RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | VIA / VIB | Dual independent TTL-compatible logic inputs - control VOA and VOB independently; no internal cross-coupling or dead-time insertion |
| 3, 8 | VDDI | Input-side power supply - powers isolation transmitter and logic interface; must be decoupled with 0.1 µF + 10 µF near pins |
| 4 | GNDI | Input-side ground reference - forms isolation barrier boundary; requires separate plane from GNDA/GNDB |
| 5 | EN | Active-high enable - forces both VOA and VOB low when low; no effect if VDDI is below UVLO |
| 6, 7, 12, 13 | NC | No-connect - electrically unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GNDI per layout best practice |
| 9, 11 | GNDB / GNDA | Driver-side ground returns - GNDA references VOA; GNDB references VOB; may be tied together only if same potential |
| 10, 15 | VOB / VOA | Gate drive outputs - push-pull structure with 2.7 Ω RDS(ON) (high) and 1.0 Ω RDS(ON) (low); support ±1.2 V transient tolerance |
| 14, 16 | VDDB / VDDA | Driver-side power supplies - independently bias high-side and low-side output stages; each monitored for UVLO |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent isolated channels | Enables fully asynchronous control of two switches - e.g., dual low-side drivers in interleaved PFC or independent high-side drivers in three-phase inverter legs |
| Separate VO+ / VO– outputs per channel | Allows external gate resistor tuning for asymmetric rise/fall times - critical for EMI optimization in SiC/GaN designs |
| 200 kV/µs CMTI | Prevents false triggering in 1500 V DC-link inverters with >50 V/ns transients - validated per IEC 60747-17 |
| AEC-Q100 qualified (-40 to +125 °C) | Supports automotive production without additional qualification testing - includes PPAP documentation and IMDS reporting |
| Independent VDDA/VDDB UVLO monitoring | Prevents partial drive failure - if VDDA drops below 3.9 V while VDDB remains valid, only VOA is disabled; VOB continues operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual isolated gate drive applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si8275DBD-IM1 | Same die, identical electrical specs, but LGA-13 package (5 mm × 5 mm) vs. SOIC-16 (10.3 mm × 7.5 mm) | Preferred for space-constrained automotive modules where PCB area and thermal resistance are critical | Select for high-density layouts; requires requalification of solder profile and mechanical mounting |
| UCC5390SCD | TI part with 4 A output, but single-channel; requires two units for dual function; 100 kV/µs CMTI vs. 200 kV/µs | Used in cost-sensitive industrial inverters where lower CMTI suffices and board area is less constrained | Choose when dual-channel integration is not required or when TI ecosystem alignment is prioritized |
Compared with SI8275DAD-IM1, Si8275DBD-IM1 offers identical performance in a smaller footprint but demands revised thermal and assembly validation, while UCC5390SCD provides comparable drive strength at lower CMTI and requires doubling component count - making SI8275DAD-IM1 optimal for space-, reliability-, and noise-critical automotive and solar applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage rating for SI8275DAD-IM1's isolation barrier?
The SI8275DAD-IM1 provides 2.5 kVRMS withstand voltage per UL1577, validated for one minute. This rating applies to the reinforced insulation barrier between input (VDDI/GNDI) and output (VDDA/GNDA and VDDB/GNDB) sides. It supports system-level working voltages up to 1000 V DC in accordance with IEC 62368-1 and VDE 60747-17 standards. The SI8275DAD-IM1 must be used with appropriate creepage and clearance distances on PCB to maintain this rating.
Does SI8275DAD-IM1 include built-in dead-time control or overlap protection?
No, the SI8275DAD-IM1 does not implement programmable dead time or hardware-based overlap protection. Unlike the Si8273 (high-side/low-side with overlap) or Si8274 (PWM-input with DT pin), the SI8275DAD-IM1 is a dual independent driver - VIA controls VOA, VIB controls VOB, with no internal logic coupling. Dead time must be generated externally by the controller. This architecture gives full timing flexibility for non-complementary switching schemes such as dual low-side or dual high-side drive.
What are the UVLO thresholds for SI8275DAD-IM1's input and output supplies?
The SI8275DAD-IM1 features independent UVLO on all power domains: VDDI UVLO triggers at 2.1 V (falling) and 2.3 V (rising); VDDA and VDDB each have UVLO thresholds of 3.9 V (falling) and 4.1 V (rising). When any supply falls below its UVLO threshold, the corresponding output (VOA for VDDA, VOB for VDDB, or both for VDDI) is forced low. Recovery requires the supply to exceed the rising threshold and wait tSTART (≥10 µs) before resuming normal operation.
Can SI8275DAD-IM1 drive SiC or GaN FETs effectively?
Yes, the SI8275DAD-IM1 is explicitly qualified for SiC and GaN FET gate drive. Its 4 A peak output current, low RDS(ON) (2.7 Ω high / 1.0 Ω low), ≤60 ns propagation delay, and 200 kV/µs CMTI meet the demanding requirements of wide-bandgap devices. It supports gate resistors down to 2.2 Ω for fast turn-on/turn-off and handles ±1.2 V transient spikes on VOA/VOB - critical for minimizing Miller-induced false turn-on in high-dV/dt SiC half-bridges.
Is SI8275DAD-IM1 pin-compatible with other Si827x family members?
No, SI8275DAD-IM1 is not pin-compatible with Si8271, Si8273, or Si8274. While all share the SOIC-16 package outline, pin assignments differ significantly: SI8275 uses pins 1/2 for VIA/VIB and 10/15 for VOB/VOA, whereas Si8273 places VOA/VOB on pins 15/10 and shares VDDI on pins 3/8, and Si8274 dedicates pin 1 to PWM and pin 6 to DT. Board redesign is required when substituting across Si827x variants.
