Product details
Overview
SI8645BT-AS2R from Skyworks is a quad-channel, 5 kVRMS reinforced digital isolator in wide-body SOIC-16 package, supporting up to 150 Mbps data rate with <10 ns propagation delay, 0.5 ns channel-channel skew, and fail-safe low-default output state. It operates from 2.5–5.5 V on both sides and delivers ultra-low power consumption (5.5 mA/channel at 100 Mbps, 5 V), targeting isolated communication in battery management systems and traction inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SI8645BT-AS2R datasheet, SI8645BT-AS2R pinout, SI8645BT-AS2R application, or SI8645BT-AS2R equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualified automotive-grade construction, VDE 0884-10 reinforced insulation certification, 10 kV surge capability, and tri-state enable control for output multiplexing in high-noise motor drive environments.
Technical Context
The SI8645BT-AS2R implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier-eliminating startup initialization and providing superior noise immunity over optocouplers. Its architecture supports independent undervoltage lockout (UVLO) on both VDD1 and VDD2 sides, with 2.24 V rising threshold and 70 mV hysteresis.
All four channels are unidirectional input-to-output (4:0 configuration), with Schmitt-trigger inputs (1.23–1.67 V thresholds), 50 Ω nominal output impedance, and no enable pins-confirmed by Table 3.2 where Si8645 has "- / -" for EN1/EN2. Default output is logic low during power loss per ordering option "BT".
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data rate | DC to 150 Mbps - supports high-speed CAN FD, SPI, and isolated ADC interface timing |
| Propagation delay | 5–13 ns - enables sub-10 ns timing-critical feedback loops in motor control |
| Channel skew | ≤2.5 ns (P-P), ≤0.5 ns (typ.) - ensures synchronized sampling across multiple isolated sensors |
| Isolation rating | 5000 VRMS, reinforced per VDE 0884-10 - meets IEC 62368-1 and 60601-1 for medical and EV systems |
| Supply voltage | 2.5–5.5 V on both sides - interoperable with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends |
| Power @ 100 Mbps | 5.5 mA/channel at 5 V - reduces thermal load in densely packed automotive ECUs |
| CMTI | ≥60 kV/µs - sustains reliable operation during fast-switching SiC/GaN inverter transients |
Pinout & Package
SI8645BT-AS2R uses a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (8 mm creepage, -AS2 suffix), RoHS-compliant, with standard JEDEC land pattern and 260 °C reflow profile.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 | Input-side supply | Power for channels A1–A4 input circuitry; bypass with 0.1 µF capacitor |
| GND1 | Input-side ground | Reference return for all input-side signals and VDD1 decoupling |
| A1–A4 | Input terminals | CMOS/Schmitt-trigger inputs accepting 2.0–5.5 V logic; no external pull-ups needed |
| VDD2 | Output-side supply | Power for B1–B4 output drivers; independent of VDD1 for level-shifting |
| GND2 | Output-side ground | Isolated reference for output signals; must be separated from GND1 by creepage barrier |
| B1–B4 | Output terminals | 50 Ω driver outputs; default low during VDD1 power loss; no enable control |
| NC | No-connect | Pins 1, 9, 10, 16 are unused; may be left floating or tied to GND/VDD2 per layout best practice |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM2400ARWZ | 4-channel, 25 kV/µs CMTI, 25 Mbps max, 2.7–5.5 V, SOIC-16 NB | Limited to industrial temp (–40 to 105 °C); lacks AEC-Q100 and VDE 0884-10 reinforced rating | Acceptable for non-automotive 25 Mbps SPI isolation where cost is prioritized over surge immunity |
| ISO7741FDWR | 4-channel, 100 Mbps, 80 kV/µs CMTI, 2.25–5.5 V, SOIC-16 WB, VDE-reinforced | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; default output not configurable; higher quiescent current at 100 Mbps | Suitable for industrial inverters needing higher CMTI but no automotive qualification |

FAQ
What is the isolation rating and safety certification of SI8645BT-AS2R?
SI8645BT-AS2R provides 5000 VRMS reinforced isolation and is certified to VDE 0884-10, UL 1577, CSA 5A, and CQC GB4943.1. It meets IEC 62368-1 and 60601-1 for end-equipment compliance in automotive and medical applications. The "T" in SI8645BT-AS2R denotes VDE 0884-10 reinforced rating with 10 kV surge capability.
Does SI8645BT-AS2R support enable functionality for output control?
No, SI8645BT-AS2R does not include enable inputs. As confirmed in Table 3.2 of the datasheet, the Si8645 variant has "- / -" for EN1 and EN2, meaning all four outputs (B1–B4) are always active when powered. Output tri-state control is not supported-unlike Si8640/41/42 variants which feature dedicated EN pins.
What is the default output state of SI8645BT-AS2R during input-side power loss?
SI8645BT-AS2R has a fail-safe low-default output state, as indicated by the "BT" ordering code (B = low default, T = VDE 0884-10 reinforced). When VDD1 is unpowered but VDD2 remains active, outputs B1–B4 drive logic low within 12 ns (tSD), ensuring safe shutdown in gate drive and BMS monitoring circuits.
What package type and creepage distance does SI8645BT-AS2R use?
SI8645BT-AS2R uses a wide-body SOIC-16 package with "-AS2" suffix, featuring 8 mm creepage distance achieved via tie-bar elimination while retaining standard SOIC-16 land pattern. This meets reinforced insulation requirements for 800 V battery systems and eliminates need for custom PCB spacing.
Is SI8645BT-AS2R qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SI8645BT-AS2R is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (–40 to 125 °C), manufactured using full automotive process flows, and supported with AIAG-compliant PPAP documentation, IMDS, and CAMDS listings. The "-A" in the suffix "-AS2R" confirms its automotive-grade status, with top marking containing an N–Z manufacturing code prefix.
