For engineers reviewing the SI8450AB-B-IS1R datasheet, SI8450AB-B-IS1R pinout, SI8450AB-B-IS1R application, or SI8450AB-B-IS1R equivalent, this page delivers verified timing specs, safety certifications (UL/CSA/VDE), channel-channel skew (≤1.8 ns), CMTI (25 kV/µs), and supply current at 100 Mbps (≤30 mA total) - all critical for high-speed isolated signal integrity in motor control and SMPS designs.
Technical Context
The SI8450AB-B-IS1R implements capacitive isolation with on-chip RF modulation/demodulation, enabling DC-to-150 Mbps operation without start-up initialization. Its dual 2.7–5.5 V supplies (VDD1/VDD2) support asymmetric rail configurations and maintain stable timing across –40 to +125 °C at full speed.
It features integrated enable control (ten1 ≤8 ns, ten2 ≤9.2 ns), precise channel matching (pulse width distortion ≤2.5 ns, channel-channel skew ≤1.8 ns), and robust noise immunity (CMTI ≥25 kV/µs), making it suitable for noisy environments like inverters and isolated ADC interfaces where deterministic latency and low jitter are mandatory.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM141D0BRZ | Four-channel, 150 Mbps, 2.7–5.5 V, 3750 VRMS (SOIC-16 wide), higher supply current (15.5 mA @ 100 Mbps) | Lacks fifth channel; wider SOIC-16 package increases board area; higher power draw limits use in thermally constrained modules | Select when only four channels needed and higher isolation voltage (3750 VRMS) is required for medical-grade systems. |
| ISO6751QDWR | Five-channel, 50 Mbps, 1.71–5.5 V, 5000 VRMS (SOIC-16 wide), lower speed but AEC-Q100 qualified | Insufficient for 150 Mbps motor control loops; automotive qualification adds cost and lead time for non-automotive use | Prefer for automotive BMS or infotainment where AEC-Q100 compliance is mandatory and data rate ≤50 Mbps suffices. |
Compared with ADUM141D0BRZ and ISO6751QDWR, SI8450AB-B-IS1R uniquely balances five-channel count, 150 Mbps speed, 2500 VRMS certification, and ultra-low power in a compact narrow-body SOIC - making it optimal for space-constrained industrial inverters where timing precision and thermal efficiency are prioritized over automotive qualification or maximum isolation voltage.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for SI8450AB-B-IS1R at full 150 Mbps data rate?
The SI8450AB-B-IS1R operates reliably from –40 to +125 °C at 150 Mbps with 5 V supplies and 15 pF load, as confirmed in Table 3 and Table 4 of the datasheet. Thermal derating begins above 125 °C case temperature per Figure 3, and the device's 105 °C/W junction-to-air thermal resistance requires appropriate PCB copper pour for sustained high-speed operation.
Does SI8450AB-B-IS1R support independent enable control on both sides of the isolation barrier?
Yes, SI8450AB-B-IS1R provides two dedicated enable inputs: EN1 (pin 7) controls primary-side input receivers, and EN2 (pin 16) controls secondary-side output drivers. Both are active-high with ≤2 µA input current, allowing independent power-gating of signal paths - critical for low-power sleep modes in isolated communication interfaces.
What safety certifications apply to SI8450AB-B-IS1R and what working voltages do they support?
SI8450AB-B-IS1R is certified to UL 1577 (2500 VRMS), CSA Component Notice 5A (IEC 60950-1/61010-1), and VDE IEC 60747-5-2. It supports up to 560 Vpeak working voltage (basic insulation) and 300 VRMS reinforced insulation per IEC 60664-1, validated for use in industrial equipment with ≤600 VRMS mains input.
How does the output impedance of SI8450AB-B-IS1R affect PCB layout for high-speed signals?
The SI8450AB-B-IS1R has a nominal output impedance of 85 Ω ±40%, comprising on-chip series termination and FET channel resistance. For 150 Mbps signals, controlled-impedance PCB traces (e.g., 85–100 Ω) should be used with proper termination to minimize reflections - especially critical in motor control gate drive routing where signal integrity directly impacts switching losses.
Is SI8450AB-B-IS1R pin-compatible with other members of the Si845x family such as SI8451 or SI8452?
No, SI8450AB-B-IS1R is not pin-compatible with SI8451 or SI8452 variants. While all share the same SOIC-16 NB package and pinout numbering, the SI8450AB-B-IS1R is the "B" revision (150 Mbps), whereas SI8451/SI8452 differ in channel directionality (bidirectional vs unidirectional) and internal enable logic - requiring schematic and layout changes for substitution.
