Product details
Overview
SI8441BB-D-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, 2.7–5.5 V dual supply operation, and 2500 VRMS reinforced isolation. It serves as a high-reliability signal barrier in isolated power supplies and motor control interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SI8441BB-D-IS1R datasheet, SI8441BB-D-IS1R pinout, SI8441BB-D-IS1R application, or SI8441BB-D-IS1R equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150 Mbps capability at 125 °C, channel-to-channel skew ≤1.8 ns, CMTI ≥25 kV/µs, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-grade robustness.
Technical Context
The SI8441BB-D-IS1R implements capacitive isolation with on-chip CMOS drivers and receivers, enabling DC-to-150 Mbps operation without start-up initialization. Its dual-supply architecture (VDD1/VDD2) supports independent 2.7–5.5 V domains per side, with precise timing control via matched internal paths.
It features an enable input (ENx) that places outputs in high-impedance state within 9.2 ns, and achieves 6 ns minimum pulse width at 150 Mbps. The device meets IEC 60747-5-2 (VDE 0884-2), UL 1577, and CSA Component Notice 5A safety standards for reinforced insulation.
Key Specifications

| IN1–IN4 | Digital input signals (side 1) | Accept TTL/CMOS-compatible logic levels; VIH ≥2.0 V, VIL ≤0.8 V across full voltage range. |
| OUT1–OUT4 | Isolated digital outputs (side 2) | Drive 4 mA loads at VOL ≤0.4 V; output impedance ≈85 Ω for controlled-impedance PCB routing. |
| EN1–EN4 | Per-channel enable inputs | Assert low to force corresponding OUTx into high-Z state; ten2 ≤9.2 ns disable time. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM140D0BRIZ | 4-channel, 150 Mbps, 2.7–5.5 V, 2500 VRMS, but uses magnetic coupling and has higher 10.5 ns max propagation delay. | Less suitable for ultra-low-skew timing-critical loops due to 3 ns higher channel skew. | Prefer SI8441BB-D-IS1R where propagation delay consistency and CMTI >25 kV/µs are mandatory. |
| ISO6741QDWR | 4-channel, 50 Mbps, 1.71–5.5 V, 5000 VRMS, capacitive isolation, but limited to 50 Mbps and lacks AEC-Q100 qualification. | Applicable only in lower-speed, non-automotive industrial systems requiring higher isolation voltage. | Select SI8441BB-D-IS1R when 150 Mbps throughput and automotive qualification are required. |
Compared with ADUM140D0BRIZ and ISO6741QDWR, SI8441BB-D-IS1R uniquely delivers 150 Mbps speed with ≤1.8 ns channel skew and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification-making it optimal for high-fidelity motor control and automotive BMS where timing fidelity and reliability are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SI8441BB-D-IS1R at full 150 Mbps data rate?
The SI8441BB-D-IS1R operates at up to 125 °C ambient temperature while maintaining 150 Mbps performance, as verified in Table 3 and Table 4 of the datasheet under VDD = 5 V and 3.3 V conditions. This rating applies to both wide-body and narrow-body SOIC packages and is supported by AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification.
Does SI8441BB-D-IS1R require external start-up initialization or configuration?
No, SI8441BB-D-IS1R requires no start-up initialization or configuration. It begins passing valid data within 15–40 µs after power application (tSU), as specified in Table 3. This zero-config behavior simplifies system design and eliminates boot-time dependencies in safety-critical applications.
What safety certifications apply to SI8441BB-D-IS1R and what working voltages do they support?
SI8441BB-D-IS1R is certified to UL 1577 (2500 VRMS), CSA Component Notice 5A (IEC 60950-1/61010-1), and VDE IEC 60747-5-2. These support up to 600 VRMS reinforced insulation working voltage (CSA/VDE) and 2500 VRMS isolation withstand voltage (UL), with production-tested 3000 VRMS for 1 second.
How does the enable function operate on SI8441BB-D-IS1R, and what is its timing impact?
Each ENx pin on SI8441BB-D-IS1R controls one output channel: asserting ENx low places the corresponding OUTx in high-impedance state within 7.0–9.2 ns (ten2). When enabled, data passes with propagation delay of 3.0–9.5 ns (tPHL/tPLH). This per-channel control enables dynamic isolation in multi-zone power systems.
Is SI8441BB-D-IS1R pin-compatible with other members of the Si844x family, such as SI8440 or SI8442?
Yes, SI8441BB-D-IS1R shares identical pinout and package (WB-SOIC-16) with all Si8440/41/42/45 variants. However, electrical differences exist: SI8441B supports 150 Mbps, while SI8440A is limited to 1 Mbps and SI8442B offers different channel directionality. Pin compatibility enables drop-in replacement only within same speed/variant group (e.g., SI8441BB-D-IS1R ↔ SI8441AB-D-IS1R).
