Product details
Overview
SI83416BFA-IF from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel isolated smart high-side switch IC designed for industrial load control in PLC and motion controller systems. It delivers 1.25 A continuous current per channel, features 1.5 kVRMS galvanic isolation, supports 9–32 V switch supply and 2.25–5.5 V logic supply, and integrates eight diagnostics accessible via SPI or open-drain indicator pins.
For engineers reviewing the SI83416BFA-IF datasheet, SI83416BFA-IF pinout, SI83416BFA-IF application, or SI83416BFA-IF equivalent, this device offers verified fault protection (overcurrent, overtemperature, undervoltage), fast 10 µs update rate, multi-voltage output clamp for unlimited EAS handling, and parallel/SPI interface flexibility for industrial I/O module design.
Technical Context
The SI83416BFA-IF implements two independent high-side switches with CMOS-based RF-isolation barrier, each monitored by dedicated voltage, current, and temperature sensors. Its bidirectional isolation channels separate control and diagnostic paths, enabling simultaneous switch actuation and real-time status reporting without interference.
Switch operation uses a smart multi-voltage output clamp to suppress inductive kickback while maintaining fast turn-OFF (<10 µs propagation delay). Diagnostics-including open-circuit detection, VDD2 warning, and communication error-are reported via SPI registers or active-low open-drain FLT/LED pins, with independent error checking per isolation channel.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side isolated switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI83416BDA-IF | SPI-only interface (no parallel A1/A2 inputs); identical 2-channel, 1.25 A, high-side architecture and package | Requires full SPI control stack; lacks direct GPIO-style switching via A1/A2 + OE | Select when diagnostics and configuration dominate over deterministic parallel control timing |
| SI83412BAA-IF | 2-channel high-side switch with same 1.25 A rating and parallel interface, but no SPI diagnostics-only FLT and LED indicators | Limited to basic fault signaling; no register-level access to VDD2 warning, open-circuit, or communication errors | Select for cost-sensitive designs where only global fault indication is required, not granular diagnostics |
Compared with SI83416BFA-IF, SI83416BDA-IF trades parallel control for deeper SPI configurability, while SI83412BAA-IF reduces diagnostic capability to lower system complexity and cost-making SI83416BFA-IF the balanced choice for applications needing both deterministic switching and comprehensive diagnostics.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current per channel for SI83416BFA-IF?
The SI83416BFA-IF delivers 1.25 A continuous current per channel at 25°C ambient temperature, with RON of 78 mΩ typical. Derating applies above 25°C per the thermal characteristics in the datasheet; at 105°C ambient, the rated current drops to approximately 0.9 A per channel with proper PCB copper pour and thermal vias.
Does SI83416BFA-IF support inrush current mode for lamp loads?
No, SI83416BFA-IF does not support inrush current mode. Per Skyworks' Ordering Guide (Table 1), only variants ending in "AAA", "ADA", or "AFA" include this feature. SI83416BFA-IF is rated for 1.25 A continuous operation without temporary overcurrent capability.
What isolation certifications apply to SI83416BFA-IF?
SI83416BFA-IF carries UL 1577 recognition for 1500 Vrms isolation for 1 minute, CSA certification to IEC 62368-1, and CQC approval to GB4943.1. It also meets IEC 61131-2 for industrial programmable controllers and provides >100 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity.
Can SI83416BFA-IF be used as a low-side switch?
No, SI83416BFA-IF is configured exclusively as a high-side switch. The Si834x family includes sinking (low-side) variants such as SI83411xxx and SI83414xxx, but SI83416BFA-IF's internal architecture and pinout (B1/B2 as source outputs) are fixed for high-side operation.
How are diagnostics accessed on SI83416BFA-IF?
Diagnostics on SI83416BFA-IF are accessible via two independent paths: (1) eight distinct fault/status reports read from SPI registers (e.g., VDD2_WRN, OPEN_CH, OVER_TEMP), and (2) hardware indicator pins-FLT (global fault), LED1/LED2 (per-channel status)-all implemented as active-low open-drain outputs.
