Product details
Overview
SI8645BT-IS2R from Skyworks is a quad-channel, 5 kVRMS reinforced-isolation digital isolator in wide-body SOIC-16 (IS2) package with 4 input channels, 0 output-side inputs, 150 Mbps data rate, <10 ns propagation delay, and selectable low-default fail-safe mode. It enables robust signal transmission across high-voltage barriers in isolated power supplies and motor control interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SI8645BT-IS2R datasheet, SI8645BT-IS2R pinout, SI8645BT-IS2R application, or SI8645BT-IS2R equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, safety certifications (UL, VDE 0884-10, CQC), thermal performance (–40 to 125 °C), and design-critical timing parameters including 0.5 ns channel-channel skew and 5 ns minimum pulse width.
Technical Context
The SI8645BT-IS2R implements RF-based on/off keying isolation with no start-up initialization required, delivering stable operation across –40 to 125 °C ambient temperature and 2.5–5.5 V supply range. Its architecture provides inherent noise immunity via Schmitt trigger inputs and supports tri-state outputs via dedicated enable logic.
All four channels reside on the input side (VDD1), with outputs referenced to VDD2 - matching the Si8645 family's 4:0 channel configuration. The IS2 package variant features tie-bar-free construction for 8 mm creepage while retaining standard WB SOIC-16 land pattern compatibility.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 5 kVRMS reinforced insulation per UL 1577 and VDE 0884-10; enables use in medical (IEC 60601-1) and industrial (IEC 62368-1) safety-critical systems. |
| Data Rate | DC to 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial interfaces like SPI, RS-485 transceiver control, and isolated ADC/DAC clock distribution. |
| Propagation Delay | 5.0–13.0 ns (typ. 8.0 ns) - ensures tight timing alignment in real-time motor control and power converter feedback loops. |
| Channel-Channel Skew | 0.4–2.5 ns (typ. 0.5 ns) - maintains phase coherence across all four isolated signals for synchronized sampling or PWM gating. |
| Supply Current @ 100 Mbps | 3.6–22.8 mA per side (VDD1/VDD2) - ultra-low power enables battery-backed or energy-constrained isolated monitoring nodes. |
| Common-Mode Transient Immunity | 60–100 kV/µs (Si864xxT grade) - suppresses fast transients in high-dv/dt environments like traction inverters and SMPS gate drivers. |
| Fail-Safe Default | Low-output state during VDD1 loss - prevents undefined states in isolated enable/control lines for IGBT/MOSFET gate drivers. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 to 125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive (AEC-Q100) and industrial automation deployments. |
Pinout & Package
SI8645BT-IS2R uses a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (IS2 variant) with 8 mm creepage, tie-bar-free construction, and JEDEC-standard 260 °C reflow profile. Pinout follows Si8645 functional mapping: Channels A1–A4 on VDD1 side, B1–B4 on VDD2 side, with no enable pins (EN1/EN2 not connected).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | VDD1 Power Supply | Input-side supply rail (2.5–5.5 V); bypass capacitor required at each pin for noise suppression. |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | A1–A4 Inputs | Digital input channels referenced to VDD1/GND1; Schmitt-triggered for >400 mV hysteresis and EMI resilience. |
| 9, 10, 11, 12 | B1–B4 Outputs | Isolated output channels referenced to VDD2/GND2; 50 Ω nominal output impedance for controlled-impedance PCB routing. |
| 13, 14 | GND1, GND2 | Separate ground references for input and output domains; mandatory physical separation per creepage/clearance requirements. |
| 15, 16 | VDD2 Power Supply | Output-side supply rail (2.5–5.5 V); independent of VDD1, enabling level-shifting and dual-supply system partitioning. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reinforced VDE 0884-10 certification | Validated 10 kV surge capability and 60-year lifetime at rated working voltage - eliminates need for external transient protection in Class I/II equipment. |
| RF-based isolation architecture | No optical degradation or LED aging; stable propagation delay and CMTI over full temperature and lifetime - critical for closed-loop control accuracy. |
| Selectable fail-safe default (low) | Guaranteed logic-low output when VDD1 is unpowered - prevents unintended activation of downstream power stages during brownout or startup. |
| Tri-state outputs without enable pins | Outputs remain active (non-high-Z) at all times - simplifies system-level control logic by removing need for external EN signal routing. |
| Ultra-low power at 100 Mbps | Typ. 5.5 mA per channel at 5 V - reduces thermal load in densely packed isolated gate driver modules and multi-channel sensor interfaces. |
| Wide supply range (2.5–5.5 V) | Interoperability with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends without level shifters - lowers BOM count in mixed-voltage systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-channel digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM2402BRWZ | 4-channel, 2.5 kVRMS, 25 Mbps max data rate, 35 ns propagation delay, SOIC-16 narrow body. | Limited to lower-speed industrial interfaces; lacks reinforced VDE 0884-10 and automotive qualification. | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-safety-critical 25 Mbps applications where creepage >5 mm is not required. |
| ISO6741QDWR | 4-channel, 5 kVRMS, 50 Mbps max data rate, 22 ns propagation delay, SOIC-16 wide body, AEC-Q100 qualified. | Lower bandwidth and higher latency than SI8645BT-IS2R; suitable for CAN/LIN bus isolation but not high-speed ADC clocking. | Prefer for automotive subsystems requiring 50 Mbps isolation with TI's process consistency, but not for >100 Mbps timing-critical paths. |

FAQ
What is the isolation rating and safety certification status of SI8645BT-IS2R?
SI8645BT-IS2R provides 5 kVRMS reinforced isolation certified to UL 1577, VDE 0884-10 (reinforced), CSA 5A, CQC GB4943.1, and IEC 62368-1. It meets reinforced insulation requirements for medical (IEC 60601-1) and industrial equipment, with 10 kV surge capability and 60-year lifetime at rated voltage. SI8645BT-IS2R is not automotive-grade (no "-A" suffix), but operates from –40 to 125 °C.
Does SI8645BT-IS2R support tri-state outputs, and how is output control implemented?
SI8645BT-IS2R does not include enable inputs (EN1/EN2 are No Connect per Table 3.2), so its outputs are always active and do not enter high-impedance state. This differs from Si8640/Si8641 variants that support tri-state via EN pins. SI8645BT-IS2R is optimized for continuous signal transmission in gate drive and feedback applications where output disable is unnecessary.
What is the default output behavior of SI8645BT-IS2R during input-side power loss?
SI8645BT-IS2R is ordered with low-default fail-safe mode (indicated by "B" in part number). When VDD1 is unpowered but VDD2 remains active, all four outputs (B1–B4) default to logic low within 12 ns (tSD). This prevents unintended activation of downstream power devices during brownout or startup sequences.
How does the IS2 package variant differ from standard wide-body SOIC for SI8645BT-IS2R?
The IS2 package for SI8645BT-IS2R eliminates internal tie bars to achieve 8 mm creepage distance while maintaining identical footprint and land pattern to standard WB SOIC-16. This enables enhanced high-voltage spacing without PCB layout changes - critical for designs targeting IEC 61800-5-1 or UL 61800-5-1 compliance in motor drives and industrial inverters.
What supply voltage ranges and power consumption can be expected from SI8645BT-IS2R at 100 Mbps?
SI8645BT-IS2R operates from 2.5 V to 5.5 V on both VDD1 and VDD2 sides. At 100 Mbps and 5 V supply, typical current draw is 5.5 mA per channel on VDD2 and 3.6 mA per channel on VDD1 (total ~36 mA for all four channels), enabling efficient high-speed isolation in thermally constrained modules.
