Product details
Overview
SI8622BC-AS from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel, unidirectional digital isolator with reinforced 5 kVRMS isolation, 150 Mbps data rate, <10 ns propagation delay, and fail-safe default-low output mode. It operates across 2.5–5.5 V supplies and –40 to 125 °C, serving as a robust replacement for optocouplers in high-noise motor control and isolated power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the SI8622BC-AS datasheet, SI8622BC-AS pinout, SI8622BC-AS application, or SI8622BC-AS equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, WB SOIC-16 pin mapping, automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification status, and real-world timing performance including 0.5 ns channel-channel skew and 50 kV/µs CMTI - critical for IGBT gate drive and battery management system design.
Technical Context
The SI8622BC-AS implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and enabling deterministic timing. Its dual-channel architecture supports independent side-A and side-B undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 2.24 V typical threshold and 70 mV hysteresis.
It features Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, selectable fail-safe mode (default low per "BC" suffix), and precise timing: 8 ns typical propagation delay, 1.5 ns pulse width distortion, and 2 ns propagation delay skew - all stable over temperature and voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data rate | DC to 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial interfaces like SPI, RS-485, and CAN FD without external clock recovery. |
| Isolation rating | 5 kVRMS reinforced - certified to UL 1577, VDE 0884-10, and IEC 62368-1 for safety-critical industrial and automotive systems. |
| Propagation delay | 5–14 ns - enables tight timing budgets in real-time motor control and fast-loop isolated ADC/DAC interfaces. |
| Supply voltage | 2.5–5.5 V per side - allows direct interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends without level shifters. |
| Channel-channel skew | 0.4–2.5 ns - ensures matched timing between dual channels for synchronous signal transmission (e.g., PWM pairs). |
| CMTI | 50–100 kV/µs - maintains signal integrity in high-dV/dt environments such as traction inverters and SiC/GaN power stages. |
| Fail-safe mode | Default low (BC suffix) - outputs drive low during input-side power loss, preventing unintended activation of downstream drivers. |
Pinout & Package
SI8622BC-AS is packaged in a wide-body SOIC-16 (WB SOIC-16) with 8.3 mm creepage/clearance, supporting reinforced insulation up to 5 kVRMS. Pin functions are validated per Skyworks datasheet revision 206328B, September 2023.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND1 (Pins 1, 7) | Side 1 ground reference | Return path for VDD1-supplied logic; must be decoupled with 0.1 µF capacitor near Pin 3. |
| VDD1 (Pin 3) | Side 1 power supply | Supplies input-side circuitry (A1, A2); accepts 2.5–5.5 V; UVLO triggers below 2.16 V. |
| A1 (Pin 4), A2 (Pin 5) | Side 1 digital inputs | CMOS-compatible inputs with Schmitt trigger; VT+ = 1.67 V typ, VT– = 1.23 V typ for noise margin. |
| GND2 (Pins 9, 16) | Side 2 ground reference | Isolated return for VDD2-supplied outputs; requires separate 0.1 µF bypass at Pin 14. |
| VDD2 (Pin 14) | Side 2 power supply | Supplies output-side drivers (B1, B2); independent of VDD1; enables level-shifting applications. |
| B1 (Pin 13), B2 (Pin 12) | Side 2 digital outputs | 50 Ω nominal output impedance; drives 4 mA load at VOL ≤ 0.4 V; default-low during VDD1 loss. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RF-based isolation architecture | Eliminates startup initialization and provides deterministic timing vs. optocoupler aging or LED degradation. |
| Reinforced 5 kVRMS isolation | Meets VDE 0884-10 and UL 1577 for single-package safety in medical and EV battery systems. |
| Ultra-low power at 100 Mbps | 7.6 mA (VDD1) + 8.2 mA (VDD2) at 5 V - reduces thermal load in densely packed inverters and chargers. |
| Automotive-grade qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40 to 125 °C) with PPAP support - qualified for onboard chargers and traction inverters. |
| Selectably fail-safe output | "BC" suffix denotes default-low behavior: B1/B2 drive low when VDD1 = 0 V, preventing false turn-on of gate drivers. |
Applications
| Motor Control Systems | Isolated Power Supply Feedback |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM220N0BRZ | 2.5 kVRMS basic isolation; 150 Mbps; 13 ns max propagation delay; no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Suitable for non-automotive industrial use only; lacks reinforced insulation for medical/EV systems. | Choose ADUM220N0BRZ only if 2.5 kVRMS suffices and automotive qualification is unnecessary. |
| ISO7721DWR | 5 kVRMS reinforced; 100 Mbps; 11 ns max propagation delay; 3.3 V only; no default-low fail-safe option. | Limited to 3.3 V systems; requires external pull-downs to emulate default-low behavior. | Select ISO7721DWR when 3.3 V operation is fixed and external biasing is acceptable for fail-safe control. |
Compared with ADUM220N0BRZ and ISO7721DWR, SI8622BC-AS uniquely combines 5 kVRMS reinforced isolation, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, true default-low fail-safe (no external components), and 2.5–5.5 V dual-supply flexibility - making it optimal for automotive BMS and high-reliability industrial inverters.

FAQ
What is the isolation rating and safety certification of SI8622BC-AS?
SI8622BC-AS provides 5 kVRMS reinforced isolation and is certified to UL 1577 (5000 VRMS, 1 min), VDE 0884-10 (reinforced), CSA IEC 62368-1, and CQC GB4943.1. These approvals validate its use in safety-critical applications including EV traction inverters and medical power supplies where reinforced insulation is mandated.
Does SI8622BC-AS require external components for reliable operation?
SI8622BC-AS requires two 0.1 µF bypass capacitors - one between VDD1 and GND1 (Pins 3 and 1/7), and another between VDD2 and GND2 (Pins 14 and 9/16). No pull-up/pull-down resistors are needed: the "BC" suffix guarantees internal default-low fail-safe behavior on B1/B2 outputs during VDD1 loss.
What is the meaning of the "BC" suffix in SI8622BC-AS?
The "BC" suffix in SI8622BC-AS indicates a dual-channel, unidirectional isolator with default-low fail-safe mode: when VDD1 is unpowered, B1 and B2 outputs actively drive low. This prevents unintended activation of downstream circuits such as IGBT gates - a critical safety feature confirmed in Table 3 of the Skyworks datasheet.
How does SI8622BC-AS perform in high-noise environments like motor drives?
SI8622BC-AS achieves 50–100 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity (CMTI), validated per Figure 13 test circuit. Combined with Schmitt-trigger inputs and RF modulation, this ensures reliable operation in high-dV/dt motor drive environments where optocouplers and lower-CMTI isolators fail due to false triggering.
Is SI8622BC-AS qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SI8622BC-AS is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (–40 to 125 °C), manufactured using automotive-specific process flows, and supported with AIAG-compliant PPAP documentation. It is explicitly listed for automotive applications including onboard chargers, battery management systems, and traction inverters in the Skyworks datasheet.
