Product details
Overview
SI8652BB-AU from Skyworks is a five-channel automotive-grade digital isolator with 3 input channels on VDD1 side and 2 output channels 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 fail-safe low-default output state-designed for high-noise motor control and battery management systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI8652BB-AU datasheet, SI8652BB-AU pinout, SI8652BB-AU application, or SI8652BB-AU equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, QSOP-16 package details, fail-safe behavior under power loss, and automotive-qualified timing performance across –40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
The SI8652BB-AU implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and enabling robust noise immunity without optical coupling. Its dual-enable architecture (EN1 on Side A, EN2 on Side B) independently controls three input-driven outputs (A4, A5) and two output-driven channels (B1–B3).
It operates across 2.5–5.5 V supplies on both sides, maintains stable timing over temperature (±0.5 ns channel skew, ±2 ns propagation skew), and meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements with AIAG-compliant PPAP documentation and IMDS/CAMDS support.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channels | 5 total: 3 inputs on VDD1 side, 2 outputs on VDD2 side |
| Max Data Rate | 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial interfaces like SPI, RS-485, and isolated ADC/DAC links |
| Propagation Delay | 8 ns typical - enables precise timing in closed-loop motor control and real-time BMS communication |
| Isolation Rating | 2.5 kVRMS - certified to UL 1577, VDE 0884-10, CSA 5A, and IEC 62368-1 reinforced insulation standards |
| Supply Voltage | 2.5–5.5 V per side - allows interoperability with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog subsystems |
| Fail-Safe Default | Low output during VDD1 loss - ensures safe shutdown of downstream drivers in power-inverter gate control |
| CMTI | 50 kV/µs minimum - suppresses false triggering in high-dV/dt environments like traction inverters |
Pinout & Package
SI8652BB-AU is housed in a RoHS-compliant QSOP-16 package (5.3 mm × 10.2 mm, 1.0 mm height), optimized for high-density automotive PCB layouts and compatible with JEDEC J-STD-020C reflow profiles (260 °C peak).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 | Input-side supply | Power for input logic and channel transmitter; must be ≥2.5 V for valid operation |
| GND1 | Input-side ground | Reference for all Side A signals; requires local 0.1 µF bypass capacitor |
| A1–A3 | Input channels | Digital inputs with Schmitt trigger thresholds (VT+ = 1.67 V typ, VT– = 1.23 V typ) |
| EN1 | Side A enable | Active-high control for A4/A5 outputs; internal 2 µA pull-up allows floating use in low-noise designs |
| A4, A5 | Output channels (Side A) | Isolated outputs driven by Side A inputs; tri-stated when EN1 = low |
| VDD2 | Output-side supply | Power for receiver logic and output drivers; independent of VDD1 for true galvanic isolation |
| GND2 | Output-side ground | Reference for all Side B signals; isolated from GND1 by 2.5 kVRMS barrier |
| B1–B3 | Output channels (Side B) | Isolated outputs driven by A1–A3; default low during VDD1 undervoltage (fail-safe mode) |
| EN2 | Side B enable | Active-high control for B1–B3; internal 2 µA pull-up; disabled state forces outputs to high-impedance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RF-based isolation | Eliminates LED aging and temperature drift issues of optocouplers; no start-up delay or initialization required |
| Selectably fail-safe output | Factory-configured low-default state ensures predictable shutdown of gate drivers during primary-side power loss |
| Ultra-low power at 100 Mbps | 11.7 mA (VDD1) + 15.0 mA (VDD2) at 5 V - reduces thermal load in sealed automotive enclosures |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C), full automotive process flow, zero-defect methodology, PPAP-ready |
| High CMTI immunity | 50 kV/µs common-mode transient rejection - sustains signal integrity in 1000 V bus switching environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8652BB-IS1 | Industrial-grade (–I suffix), same pinout and electrical specs, but lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and PPAP documentation | Approved for industrial automation and medical equipment; not suitable for ASIL-B/C automotive systems | Select SI8652BB-IS1 only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs requiring identical functionality without automotive traceability |
| ADUM141DBRZ | Analog Devices quad-channel isolator; 150 Mbps, 10 ns delay, 3.75 kVRMS, SOIC-16; no dual-enable or fail-safe low option | Lacks native 5-channel configuration and programmable fail-safe default; requires external pull-downs for low-default behavior | Choose ADUM141DBRZ only if four-channel count suffices and SOIC-16 layout compatibility is prioritized over automotive compliance |
Compared with SI8652BB-IS1, the SI8652BB-AU adds mandatory automotive process controls, PPAP deliverables, and IMDS reporting-critical for OEM Tier-1 validation. Versus ADUM141DBRZ, it provides native 5-channel topology with dedicated fail-safe low and dual-enable control, reducing external component count in BMS and inverter designs.

FAQ
What is the isolation rating and safety certification status of the SI8652BB-AU?
The SI8652BB-AU provides 2.5 kVRMS isolation and is certified to UL 1577, VDE 0884-10, CSA Component Notice 5A, and IEC 62368-1 (reinforced insulation). These approvals confirm its suitability for functional isolation in automotive high-voltage systems up to 400 V working voltage, as required in ISO 26262-compliant designs.
Does the SI8652BB-AU require external components for reliable operation?
The SI8652BB-AU requires only two 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitors-one between VDD1 and GND1, and another between VDD2 and GND2-placed adjacent to the QSOP-16 package. No external pull-ups, pull-downs, or termination resistors are needed, as Schmitt trigger inputs and 50 Ω nominal output impedance are integrated.
How does the fail-safe low default mode function in the SI8652BB-AU?
When VDD1 drops below UVLO threshold (≈2.2 V), the SI8652BB-AU forces B1–B3 outputs to logic low while maintaining VDD2 power-ensuring gate drivers or fault monitors enter a known safe state. This behavior is factory-programmed and cannot be altered in-circuit.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the SI8652BB-AU?
The SI8652BB-AU is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient, meeting AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements. Its propagation delay remains stable across this range (±0.5 ns skew), and supply current increases only marginally-enabling deployment in engine bay and power module control units.
Can the SI8652BB-AU replace optocouplers in existing designs without layout changes?
Yes-the SI8652BB-AU in QSOP-16 matches standard optocoupler footprints (e.g., 16-pin wide-body SOIC pitch), and its pin-compatible enable and output structure allows direct substitution. However, verify that existing 0.1 µF bypass caps are placed within 2 mm of VDD/GND pins to maintain noise immunity.
