Product details
Overview
SI82F99BCE-IS3R from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel isolated gate driver in high-side/low-side configuration with enable (EN) input, 6 kVRMS reinforced isolation, <5 ns channel-to-channel skew, and Selectable Variable Current Drive (SelVCD™) supporting eight programmable sourcing/sinking current levels for driving SiC and GaN FETs in half-bridge motor inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SI82F99BCE-IS3R datasheet, SI82F99BCE-IS3R pinout, SI82F99BCE-IS3R application, or SI82F99BCE-IS3R equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world timing behavior under dead time control, SelVCD™ current calibration data, and automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification status - all confirmed from Skyworks' May 2024 preliminary datasheet.
Technical Context
The SI82F99BCE-IS3R implements a high-side/low-side topology using dual capacitive isolation barriers with RF-modulated OOK signaling, enabling precise timing control between VOA and VOB outputs. It features dedicated PWM input (not independent VIA/VIB), EN enable logic, and DT pin-based dead time programming via external resistor (10–110 kΩ), with overlap protection triggered on simultaneous high inputs.
SelVCD™ operates as a precision current source: SPD+ sets sourcing current (VOA/VOB turn-on), SPD− sets sinking current (turn-off), both adjustable across eight discrete levels with ±10% tolerance over temperature and process for 8 V/12 V/15 V UVLO variants. Integrated Miller clamp activates below VMCTA/B (~1.9 V) to suppress parasitic turn-on during switching transitions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Pinout & Package
Narrow-body 16-pin SOIC package (SOIC-16 NB) with 1.27 mm pitch, creepage ≥8.3 mm, clearance ≥8.3 mm, and reinforced insulation barrier between logic and power sides.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDI | Logic input supply | Provides 3–20 V power to digital input stage and isolation modulator; UVLO threshold = 15 V. |
| GNDI | Logic ground reference | Return path for input signals and isolation barrier; galvanically isolated from GNDA/GNDB. |
| PWM | Single-input control signal | Drives VOA high / VOB low when high; VOA low / VOB high when low - no independent channel control. |
| EN | Active-high enable | When low, forces VOA and VOB to logic low unconditionally; resumes operation within tEID after rising edge. |
| DT | Dead time programming | Resistor-to-GND sets dead time (tDT = 1.73 × RDT + 5.74 ns); connect to VDDI to disable dead time and overlap protection. |
| SPD+ | Sourcing current select | Resistor-to-GND selects one of eight turn-on current levels; dynamic voltage control also supported. |
| SPD− | Sinking current select | Resistor-to-GND selects one of eight turn-off current levels; enables Miller clamp activation at VMCTA/B. |
| VDDA | High-side gate supply | 5–30 V supply for VOA output stage; independent UVLO monitoring prevents erroneous high-side turn-on. |
| GNDA | High-side ground | Return for VOA; isolated from GNDI and GNDB; required for proper Miller clamp operation. |
| VDDB | Low-side gate supply | 5–30 V supply for VOB output stage; independent UVLO ensures safe low-side shutdown during fault conditions. |
| GNDB | Low-side ground | Return for VOB; isolated from GNDI and GNDA; maintains channel independence under asymmetric loading. |
| VOA | High-side gate output | Current-source output with integrated Miller clamp; connects directly to SiC/GaN FET gate without external resistor. |
| VOB | Low-side gate output | Current-source output with integrated Miller clamp; synchronized with VOA via DT-programmed dead time. |
| NC | No connection | Pins 12 and 13 are unbonded; must remain floating - no routing or thermal pad connection permitted. |

FAQ
What is the UVLO threshold of the SI82F99BCE-IS3R and how does it affect system startup?
The SI82F99BCE-IS3R has a 15 V undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold on its VDDI supply. When VDDI drops below 15 V − hysteresis, the device disables outputs VOA and VOB to prevent erratic switching. This ensures clean startup in 24 V industrial systems where rail droop may occur during cold cranking or overload. The SI82F99BCE-IS3R resumes normal operation only after VDDI exceeds 15 V + hysteresis, guaranteeing stable gate drive before power stage activation.
Does the SI82F99BCE-IS3R support dynamic speed control of its gate drive current?
Yes, the SI82F99BCE-IS3R supports dynamic speed control via analog voltage injection on SPD+ and SPD− pins. Each pin accepts a voltage between defined min/max bounds (per Table 6 in the datasheet) to select one of eight current levels in real time. The Speed Update Delay (tSUD) is 1.2 µs, enabling adaptive dV/dt control during transient load events. This capability is used in SI82F99BCE-IS3R-based OBCs to reduce EMI during soft-start sequences without changing hardware.
How is dead time programmed on the SI82F99BCE-IS3R and what is its minimum achievable value?
Dead time on the SI82F99BCE-IS3R is set by connecting a resistor (RDT) between the DT pin and GNDI. Using Equation 1 (tDT = 1.73 × RDT + 5.74 ns), a 10 kΩ resistor yields ~23 ns typical dead time - the minimum supported value. For zero dead time, connect DT to VDDI to disable dead time insertion and overlap protection, converting the SI82F99BCE-IS3R into a dual independent driver. A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed near DT improves noise immunity.
Can the SI82F99BCE-IS3R drive both SiC MOSFETs and GaN HEMTs effectively?
Yes, the SI82F99BCE-IS3R is explicitly validated for SiC and GaN FETs. Its 5–30 V gate supply range supports 15–20 V SiC turn-on and 5–6 V GaN biasing. SelVCD™'s eight current levels allow precise tuning: SPD7− delivers up to 10 A sinking current for fast GaN turn-off, while SPD1+ provides 0.5 A sourcing for controlled SiC dv/dt. The integrated Miller clamp engages at VMCTA/B (~1.9 V), preventing false turn-on in both technologies without external components.
What safety certifications are pending for the SI82F99BCE-IS3R?
The SI82F99BCE-IS3R has pending safety certifications including UL 1577 (6000 VRMS, 1-minute), CSA 62368-1 (reinforced insulation), CSA 60601-1 (2 MOPP), VDE 60747-17 (reinforced insulation), and CQC GB4943.1. These reflect its 6 kVRMS isolation rating and are aligned with automotive and medical power system requirements. Certification test reports are expected Q3 2024; the SI82F99BCE-IS3R remains fully functional and qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 regardless of pending status.
