Product details
Overview
SI8441BA-C-IS1R from Skyworks Solutions is a quad-channel, ultra-low-power digital isolator in a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package, supporting up to 150 Mbps data rate with worst-case propagation delay <9.5 ns, 0.5 ns channel-channel skew, and 25 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity. It operates across 2.7–5.5 V supply rails and delivers <8.0 mA per channel at 100 Mbps (5 V), enabling high-speed isolation in motor control and isolated ADC interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SI8441BA-C-IS1R datasheet, SI8441BA-C-IS1R pinout, SI8441BA-C-IS1R application, or SI8441BA-C-IS1R equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150 Mbps capability, AEC-Q100 qualification, 2.5 kVRMS reinforced insulation, and compatibility with industrial automation and hybrid electric vehicle subsystems requiring precise timing and high CMTI.
Technical Context
The SI8441BA-C-IS1R implements capacitive isolation with on-chip RF modulation/demodulation for signal transfer across the isolation barrier. Its four independent unidirectional channels support asymmetric voltage operation (VDD1 ≠ VDD2) and feature integrated enable inputs that place outputs in high-impedance state with 5–8 ns enable-to-data timing.
It achieves stable timing performance over –40°C to +125°C at full 150 Mbps, with pulse width distortion ≤2.5 ns and output rise/fall times ≤6.5 ns (2.7 V) or ≤5.0 ns (5 V). The device requires only VDD bypass capacitors-no external components-for operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data Rate | Up to 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial interfaces like SPI, RS-485 transceiver control, and real-time feedback loops. |
| Propagation Delay | 3.0–9.5 ns (typ/max) - enables sub-10 ns timing-critical sampling in isolated gate drivers and ADC synchronization. |
| Channel-Channel Skew | 0.5–1.8 ns (typ/max) - ensures tight alignment of multi-channel signals in motor phase control and encoder interfaces. |
| Common-Mode Transient Immunity | 25 kV/µs - maintains signal integrity in noisy power electronics environments such as inverters and SMPS. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.70–5.5 V per side - allows direct interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends without level shifters. |
| Isolation Rating | 2500 VRMS (1 min) - certified to UL 1577, CSA Component Notice 5A, and VDE IEC 60747-5-2 for reinforced insulation. |
| Power Consumption | <8.0 mA per channel @ 100 Mbps, 5 V - reduces thermal load and enables compact, fanless industrial designs. |
Pinout & Package
SI8441BA-C-IS1R is housed in a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (WB SOIC-16), with creepage/clearance ≥8.0 mm and reinforced insulation rated to 2500 VRMS. Pin numbering follows standard SOIC convention (pin 1 = top-left corner, notch indicator).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Primary-side input channels A–D | Digital logic inputs referenced to VDD1; accept 2.0–5.5 V high-level signals. |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | Primary-side ground (GND1) | Return path for VDD1 supplies and input-side circuitry; must be low-impedance. |
| 9, 10, 11, 12 | Secondary-side output channels A–D | CMOS-compatible outputs referenced to VDD2; drive loads up to 10 mA. |
| 13, 14, 15, 16 | Secondary-side ground (GND2) | Isolated return path for VDD2 and output-side circuitry; galvanically separated from GND1. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low power at high speed | <8.0 mA per channel @ 100 Mbps (5 V), enabling energy-efficient isolation in battery-backed or thermally constrained systems. |
| Precision timing performance | 0.5 ns typical channel-channel skew and 1.5 ns typical pulse width distortion ensure deterministic signal alignment in closed-loop control. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Qualified to Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C), supporting deployment in automotive powertrain and charging subsystems. |
| No start-up initialization | Valid output data within 15–40 µs of power application - eliminates boot-time delays in safety-critical systems. |
| Enable-controlled tri-state outputs | ENx pins allow dynamic disabling of secondary-side outputs with 5–8 ns enable-to-tri-state response for bus sharing or fault containment. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM140D0BRWZ | 4-channel, 150 Mbps, 2.5 kVRMS, SOIC-16 wide body; higher typical supply current (9.3 mA @ 100 Mbps, 5 V) and 3 ns max channel skew. | Same isolation rating and data rate, but lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and has lower CMTI (100 kV/µs typical, not guaranteed min). | Preferred where automotive qualification is unnecessary and higher CMTI margin is not required. |
| ISO6741QDWR | 4-channel, 50 Mbps, 5000 VRMS, SOIC-16 wide body; lower speed, higher isolation, 3.0–5.5 V supply, 10 kV/µs CMTI min. | Targets high-voltage safety-critical systems (e.g., medical, grid-tie inverters) where 150 Mbps is not needed but 5 kVRMS is mandatory. | Select when working voltage exceeds 2500 VRMS or regulatory requirements demand higher test voltage. |
Compared with ADUM140D0BRWZ and ISO6741QDWR, the SI8441BA-C-IS1R uniquely balances 150 Mbps speed, AEC-Q100 qualification, and 25 kV/µs guaranteed CMTI in a cost-optimized wide-body SOIC-making it optimal for automotive and industrial real-time control where timing precision and noise resilience are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SI8441BA-C-IS1R at full 150 Mbps data rate?
The SI8441BA-C-IS1R is specified for continuous operation at –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature while sustaining 150 Mbps across all four channels. This rating is validated per Table 1 in the datasheet under 15 pF load and 5 V supply conditions, and applies to both wide-body SOIC package variants.
Does SI8441BA-C-IS1R support bidirectional communication on individual channels?
No, SI8441BA-C-IS1R provides four unidirectional channels only-pins 1–4 are dedicated inputs (primary side), and pins 9–12 are dedicated outputs (secondary side). Bidirectional signaling requires external logic or separate transmit/receive isolator pairs; the device does not integrate auto-direction detection or half-duplex control.
What safety certifications apply specifically to SI8441BA-C-IS1R?
SI8441BA-C-IS1R carries UL 1577 (2500 VRMS, 1 min), CSA Component Notice 5A (IEC 60950-1/61010-1 reinforced insulation), and VDE IEC 60747-5-2 (560 Vpeak working voltage) certifications. These are production-tested per revision C/D specifications and documented in Skyworks' certification files E257455, 232873, and 5006301-4880-0001.
How does the enable function operate on SI8441BA-C-IS1R?
Each channel has a dedicated enable input (EN1–EN4, pins 13–16 per functional description): driving ENx low places the corresponding output (OUTx) in high-impedance state within 7–9.2 ns. When ENx is high, OUTx follows INx with propagation delay of 3–9.5 ns. No pull-up/pull-down resistors are required-the enable inputs are internally biased.
Is SI8441BA-C-IS1R pin-compatible with other members of the Si8440/41/42/45 family?
Yes-SI8441BA-C-IS1R shares identical pinout, package dimensions, and footprint with all Si844xAx and Si844xBx variants in the wide-body SOIC-16 configuration. However, data rate capability differs: SI8441BA-C-IS1R supports 150 Mbps (B-grade), whereas Si8441AA-C-IS1R is limited to 1 Mbps (A-grade); electrical behavior and timing specs vary accordingly.
