Product details
Overview
SI8275DA-IM1R from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel isolated gate driver IC designed for high-reliability MOSFET/IGBT/SiC/GaN FET control in half-bridge and dual-switch topologies. It delivers 4 A peak output current per channel, supports 4.2–30 V driver supply voltage, features 60 ns max propagation delay, 200 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity (CMTI), and operates across –40 to +125 °C. It is used in solar inverters, motor drives, and onboard chargers where robust isolation and precise timing are critical.
For engineers reviewing the SI8275DA-IM1R datasheet, SI8275DA-IM1R pinout, SI8275DA-IM1R application, or SI8275DA-IM1R equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, automotive-grade reliability data (AEC-Q100 qualified), and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application differences.
Technical Context
The SI8275DA-IM1R implements two independent isolated gate drive channels using Skyworks' proprietary RF-based silicon isolation barrier, delivering 2.5 kVRMS withstand voltage per UL1577. Each channel has dedicated input (VIA/VIB), output (VOA/VOB), and supply rails (VDDA/VDDB, GNDA/GNDB), enabling operation with separate or shared grounds and flexible high-side/low-side assignment.
It lacks programmable dead time and overlap protection-unlike Si8274 or Si8273-because it is a dual-driver (not high-side/low-side pair) with independent logic inputs. UVLO monitoring is implemented separately on input side (VDDI) and each output side (VDDA, VDDB), forcing outputs low when any supply falls below threshold.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Output Current | 4 A per channel - sufficient to directly drive medium-power SiC/GaN FETs without external buffers |
| Propagation Delay | 60 ns max - enables <16.7 MHz PWM switching in high-frequency power converters |
| CMTI | 200 kV/µs - maintains signal integrity in noisy 1500 V DC bus environments like solar inverters |
| Isolation Withstand | 2.5 kVRMS (UL1577) - meets reinforced insulation requirements for industrial and automotive systems |
| Supply Range | VDDI: 2.5–5.5 V; VDDA/VDDB: 4.2–30 V - supports wide-input microcontrollers and diverse gate drive voltages |
| Operating Temp | –40 to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial ambient conditions |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Qualified - certified for automotive applications including traction inverters and OBCs |
Pinout & Package
SI8275DA-IM1R is housed in a 16-pin SOIC package with creepage/clearance optimized for reinforced isolation. Pin assignments follow the Si8273/75 layout per Skyworks datasheet Figure 2 and Table 2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | VIA, VIB | Independent TTL-compatible logic inputs - control VOA and VOB separately; >400 mV hysteresis rejects noise |
| 3, 8 | VDDI | Input-side power rail - powers isolation transmitter and logic; must be 2.5–5.5 V |
| 4 | GNDI | Input-side reference ground - forms isolation barrier boundary with driver-side grounds |
| 5 | EN | Global enable - pulls both VOA and VOB low when asserted; no effect if VDDI is in UVLO |
| 6, 7, 12, 13 | NC | No-connect pins - must remain unconnected; not internally bonded |
| 9, 11 | GNDB, VDDB | Driver-B ground and supply - fully isolated from Driver-A and input side; supports 4.2–30 V |
| 10 | VOB | Driver-B output - 4 A sink/source capable; connects directly to gate of Q2 in dual-switch or half-bridge |
| 14 | GNDA | Driver-A ground - isolated reference for VOA; allows floating high-side configuration |
| 15 | VOA | Driver-A output - 4 A sink/source capable; used for primary switch or high-side FET in asymmetric designs |
| 16 | VDDA | Driver-A supply - powers VOA output stage; independent of VDDB for split-rail gate drive |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent isolated channels | Enables asynchronous control of two switches - e.g., dual low-side in parallel PFC or isolated dual-output DC/DC |
| Separate VDDA/VDDB and GNDA/GNDB | Allows VOA and VOB to drive FETs referenced to different potentials - up to 1500 V dc differential supported |
| 200 kV/µs CMTI | Prevents false triggering during fast dV/dt transients in SiC/GaN systems - critical for >100 kHz switching |
| UVLO on all three supplies | VDDI, VDDA, and VDDB each have independent undervoltage lockout - ensures safe shutdown if any rail fails |
| AEC-Q100 qualification | Validated for automotive use - includes PPAP support, IMDS/CAMDS compliance, and zero-defect manufacturing flow |
Applications
| Solar Power Inverter | Industrial Motor Drive |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual isolated gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si8275AD-IM1R | Same pinout and electrical specs, but -AD suffix denotes standard grade (non-automotive); lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and PPAP documentation | Approved for industrial SMPS and UPS, not automotive OBC or traction inverters | Select SI8275DA-IM1R for automotive programs requiring AEC-Q100 traceability; choose Si8275AD-IM1R for cost-sensitive industrial designs. |
| UCC5390SCD | Texas Instruments dual isolated driver with 4 A peak, 60 ns delay, but only 100 kV/µs CMTI and no AEC-Q100 automotive qualification | Used in industrial motor drives and telecom PSUs; not approved for automotive safety-critical systems | Choose SI8275DA-IM1R where >200 kV/µs CMTI or automotive qualification is mandatory; UCC5390SCD suits less aggressive EMI environments. |
Compared with Si8275AD-IM1R, SI8275DA-IM1R adds automotive-grade process controls and certification without sacrificing performance; versus UCC5390SCD, it delivers higher noise immunity and formal automotive validation-critical for EV power electronics.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the SI8275DA-IM1R?
The SI8275DA-IM1R provides 2.5 kVRMS isolation withstand voltage per UL1577 for one minute, meeting reinforced insulation requirements for industrial and automotive applications. This rating applies across the input-to-output barrier and is validated by Skyworks' silicon isolation technology-not optocoupler-based-ensuring long-term stability over temperature and lifetime.
Does the SI8275DA-IM1R support programmable dead time?
No, the SI8275DA-IM1R does not support programmable dead time. Unlike the Si8274 (PWM-input variant) or Si8273 (high-side/low-side with overlap protection), the SI8275DA-IM1R is a dual independent driver with separate VIA and VIB inputs and no internal dead-time circuitry. Dead time must be implemented externally in the controller logic.
What is the function of the NC pins on the SI8275DA-IM1R?
Pins 6, 7, 12, and 13 on the SI8275DA-IM1R are No Connect (NC) terminals - they are not bonded internally and must remain unconnected in the PCB layout. These pins exist for mechanical compatibility and package symmetry but carry no electrical function; routing traces or placing vias on them is prohibited.
Can SI8275DA-IM1R drive SiC or GaN FETs directly?
Yes, the SI8275DA-IM1R can drive SiC and GaN FETs directly due to its 4 A peak output current per channel, low RDS(ON) (2.7 Ω high-side, 1.0 Ω low-side), and fast 60 ns propagation delay. Its 200 kV/µs CMTI also mitigates false triggering caused by the extreme dV/dt of wide-bandgap devices in high-frequency converters.
How does UVLO operate on the SI8275DA-IM1R?
The SI8275DA-IM1R implements independent UVLO on three rails: VDDI (input side), VDDA (driver-A side), and VDDB (driver-B side). If any supply drops below its UVLO threshold, the corresponding outputs (VOA or VOB) are forced low. Outputs remain low until all monitored supplies exceed their respective UVLO+ thresholds for tSTART (typically ~10 µs), ensuring safe startup and fault recovery.
