Product details
Overview
SI8651BB-AUR from Skyworks is a five-channel, ultra-low-power digital isolator with 4 input channels on VDD1 side and 1 output channel on VDD2 side, supporting up to 150 Mbps data rate, <10 ns propagation delay, and 2.5 kVRMS isolation. It features Schmitt trigger inputs, tri-state outputs with enable control, and selectable fail-safe low-default output state - used in isolated ADC interfaces and motor control gate drivers.
For engineers reviewing the SI8651BB-AUR datasheet, SI8651BB-AUR pinout, SI8651BB-AUR application, or SI8651BB-AUR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping to SOIC-16 narrow body, functional pin definitions, automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification, and two confirmed alternative part numbers for industrial and automotive isolation design.
Technical Context
The SI8651BB-AUR implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and enabling robust noise immunity without optical degradation. Its dual-supply architecture (VDD1/VDD2) supports asymmetric voltage operation from 2.5–5.5 V per side, with independent undervoltage lockout (UVLO) monitoring on both sides.
It integrates dedicated enable inputs (EN1 on Side A, EN2 on Side B) for independent tri-state control of its single output channel (A5) and four output channels (B1–B4), respectively. The device achieves 0.5 ns channel-channel skew and 50 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity, meeting reinforced insulation requirements per VDE 0884-10 and IEC 62368-1.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channels & Direction | 4-input / 1-output unidirectional configuration (A-side inputs → B-side outputs) |
| Max Data Rate | 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial links in motor control feedback and isolated CAN FD transceivers |
| Propagation Delay | 5–13 ns - enables precise timing-critical sampling in isolated ADC/DAC systems |
| Isolation Rating | 2.5 kVRMS - certified to UL 1577, CSA 5A, VDE 0884-10, and CQC GB4943.1 for reinforced insulation |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.5–5.5 V per side - allows interoperability with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends |
| Fail-Safe Default | Low output during power loss - ensures safe shutdown in battery management system isolators |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Qualified to Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C) - validated for automotive on-board chargers and traction inverters |
Pinout & Package
SI8651BB-AUR is housed in a RoHS-compliant 16-pin narrow-body SOIC (NB SOIC-16) package with 7.5 mm creepage and 8.0 mm clearance, rated for 2.5 kVRMS working voltage and compatible with JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 | Input-side supply | Power for 4 input channels (A1–A4); must be ≥2.5 V for valid logic detection |
| GND1 | Input-side ground | Reference return for A-side signals and VDD1 bypass capacitor |
| A1–A4 | Input channels | CMOS/Schmitt-triggered inputs accepting 0–VDD1 logic; no external pull-ups required |
| EN1 | Input-side enable | Controls tri-state of output A5; low = high-impedance, high = active drive |
| VDD2 | Output-side supply | Power for 1 output channel (A5); independent of VDD1 for galvanic isolation |
| GND2 | Output-side ground | Reference return for B-side signals and VDD2 bypass capacitor |
| A5 | Isolated output | Single CMOS output driven from A-side inputs; state follows A1–A4 when EN1 = high |
| EN2 | Output-side enable | Not connected (NC) on SI8651BB-AUR - unused and may be left floating or tied to VDD2/GND2 |
| B1–B4 | No-connect terminals | Physically present but internally unconnected; must not be used as signal paths |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8651BB-IS1 | Industrial-grade (–I suffix), identical pinout and electrical specs; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and PPAP documentation | Suitable for non-automotive industrial use only; not approved for automotive production programs | Select SI8651BB-IS1 for cost-sensitive industrial designs where automotive qualification is unnecessary |
| ADUM141E0BRZ | Analog Devices quad-channel isolator with 100 Mbps max rate, 13 ns propagation delay, and 3.75 kVRMS rating in SOIC-16WB | Requires separate isolator for fifth channel; wider SOIC-16WB footprint increases layout area | Choose ADUM141E0BRZ when higher isolation rating (3.75 kV) is mandatory and fifth channel can be implemented externally |
Compared with SI8651BB-IS1, SI8651BB-AUR adds AEC-Q100 Grade 1 validation and AIAG-compliant PPAP support for automotive release, while ADUM141E0BRZ trades channel count for higher isolation voltage and requires additional components to match SI8651BB-AUR's 5-channel functionality.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating and safety certification status of SI8651BB-AUR?
SI8651BB-AUR is rated for 2.5 kVRMS isolation and certified to UL 1577, CSA Component Notice 5A, VDE 0884-10, and CQC GB4943.1 standards. It meets reinforced insulation requirements per IEC 62368-1 and IEC 60601-1, making it suitable for medical and industrial end-equipment requiring double protection barriers. All certifications apply directly to the SI8651BB-AUR part number.
Does SI8651BB-AUR support operation at 2.5 V on both VDD1 and VDD2 supplies?
Yes, SI8651BB-AUR operates across 2.5–5.5 V on both VDD1 and VDD2 independently. At 2.5 V, it delivers 1.5 mA per channel at 1 Mbps and 3.5 mA per channel at 100 Mbps - verified in Table 4.2 and Figure 3.4 of the official datasheet. This enables direct interfacing with low-voltage microcontrollers and sensors without level-shifting.
How does the fail-safe low-default mode function in SI8651BB-AUR during power loss?
In SI8651BB-AUR, the fail-safe mode defaults the isolated output A5 to logic low when VDD1 is unpowered but VDD2 remains active. This behavior is hard-coded by ordering option ('BB' suffix denotes low-default), ensuring predictable shutdown of downstream circuits like gate drivers or relays. It does not require external pull-downs or configuration registers.
What is the meaning of the '-AUR' suffix in SI8651BB-AUR?
The '-AUR' suffix indicates an Automotive-grade device ('A') in tape-and-reel packaging ('R'), qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C), with full automotive process flow, AIAG-compliant PPAP documentation, and IMDS/CAMDS material reporting. The 'U' denotes QSOP-16 or SOIC-16 narrow-body package - confirmed as NB SOIC-16 for SI8651BB-AUR.
Can EN2 be used to control outputs on SI8651BB-AUR?
No, EN2 is a no-connect (NC) terminal on SI8651BB-AUR. Only EN1 controls the tri-state state of output A5. This is defined in Table 3.2 of the datasheet: for Si8651 devices, EN1 manages A5 while EN2 is unused. Leaving EN2 floating, tying it to VDD2, or grounding it has no effect on device operation.
