Product details
Overview
SI8660BB-AS1R from Skyworks is a six-channel, automotive-grade digital isolator with 2.5 kVRMS isolation rating, 150 Mbps data rate, <10 ns propagation delay, and fail-safe default-low output configuration. It operates across –40 to 125 °C and supports 2.5–5.5 V dual supplies, enabling robust signal isolation in high-noise traction inverter gate drive circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SI8660BB-AS1R datasheet, SI8660BB-AS1R pinout, SI8660BB-AS1R application, or SI8660BB-AS1R equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 qualification, 50 kV/µs CMTI, narrow-body SOIC-16 package with 8 mm creepage, and channel-specific power domain independence for motor control safety separation.
Technical Context
The SI8660BB-AS1R implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and supporting DC–150 Mbps operation without clock recovery circuitry. Its Schmitt-trigger inputs provide 0.44 V typical hysteresis for noise immunity in industrial bus environments.
Each of its six unidirectional channels operates independently across isolated VDD1/VDD2 domains, with undervoltage lockout (UVLO) thresholds at 2.24 V (rising) and 2.16 V (falling) per side. Fail-safe behavior defaults outputs low when VDD1 is unpowered but VDD2 remains active - a factory-configured ordering option confirmed for this part number.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channels | 6 unidirectional, input-side only (6:0 configuration) |
| Max Data Rate | 150 Mbps - supports high-speed SPI, CAN FD, and PWM feedback in real-time motor control loops |
| Propagation Delay | 8.0 ns typical - enables sub-100 ns closed-loop timing margins in servo drives |
| Isolation Rating | 2.5 kVRMS - UL/CSA/VDE/CQC certified for reinforced insulation in 400–800 V battery systems |
| CMTI | 50 kV/µs minimum - prevents false triggering during fast dv/dt transients in SiC/GaN inverter switching |
| Supply Range | 2.5–5.5 V per side - interoperable with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V gate drivers without level shifters |
| Operating Temp | –40 to 125 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood automotive use |
Pinout & Package
Narrow-body SOIC-16 package (NB SOIC-16), RoHS-compliant, 260 °C peak reflow, 8 mm creepage distance per IEC 60664-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 | VDD1 Power Supply | Input-side supply pins - must be bypassed with 0.1 µF capacitor each to GND1 |
| 7, 14 | GND1 | Input-side ground reference - separate from GND2 to maintain galvanic isolation |
| 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 | IN1–IN6 | Digital input signals referenced to VDD1/GND1 - Schmitt-triggered for >0.4 V hysteresis |
| 15, 16 | GND2 | Output-side ground - electrically isolated from GND1; required for VDD2 return path |
| 16 | VDD2 | Output-side supply - powers all six output drivers; independent voltage domain from VDD1 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fail-safe default-low output | Guaranteed logic-low state on all six outputs when VDD1 is unpowered but VDD2 remains active - critical for safe shutdown in BMS fault conditions |
| Ultra-low power at 100 Mbps | 5.5 mA per channel at 5 V (33 mA total for all six channels) - reduces thermal load in sealed EV power modules |
| Channel-to-channel skew | 0.5 ns typical - ensures synchronized sampling of multi-phase current sensors in motor FOC algorithms |
| Transient immunity | 50 kV/µs common-mode rejection - maintains data integrity during 100 V/ns SiC switch node transients |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 | Qualified for automotive applications including on-board chargers and traction inverters - full PPAP documentation support available |
Applications
| Motor Control Gate Drive Isolation | Battery Management System Monitoring |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Isolating PWM signals from MCU to six IGBT/SiC gate drivers in a 3-phase inverter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Six-channel unidirectional isolator providing independent, low-skew timing paths for high-side and low-side gate signals. Use Value: 0.5 ns channel skew and 8 ns propagation delay enable precise dead-time control and prevent shoot-through in 20 kHz+ switching inverters. |
Use Scenario: Isolating voltage/current sensor ADC serial interfaces from high-voltage battery pack monitoring ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Digital isolator bridging isolated analog front-end domain to non-isolated host MCU domain via SPI. Use Value: 150 Mbps capability supports oversampled 16-bit ADC reads at >1 MSPS without bottlenecking data throughput. |
| On-Board Charger Communication | Traction Inverter Fault Signaling |
|
Use Scenario: Isolating CAN FD communication lines between OBC controller and vehicle ECU across 400 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-speed digital isolator protecting CAN transceiver PHY from ground potential differences and EMI. Use Value: 50 kV/µs CMTI prevents bit errors during high-dv/dt events in bidirectional AC/DC conversion stages. |
Use Scenario: Transmitting hardware fault signals (overtemperature, overcurrent, desaturation) from isolated gate driver ICs to system controller. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fail-safe default-low isolator ensuring fault line asserts logic-low immediately upon primary supply loss. Use Value: Default-low behavior eliminates need for external pull-down resistors and guarantees safe state during brown-out conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8660BB-B-IS1 | Industrial-grade (–I suffix), same 2.5 kVRMS rating, identical pinout and electrical specs except AEC-Q100 not applied | Lacks automotive qualification documentation (PPAP, IMDS); suitable for industrial inverters but not OEM automotive programs | Select SI8660BB-B-IS1 only for cost-sensitive industrial designs where automotive traceability is not required |
| ADUM6600ARWZ | Analog Devices' 6-channel isolator with integrated 5 V iso-power; higher 10.5 ns max propagation delay; no selectable fail-safe mode | Requires external fail-safe circuitry for default-low behavior; integrated power simplifies supply but increases thermal coupling risk | Choose ADUM6600ARWZ only if isolated power delivery is prioritized over timing precision and fail-safe configurability |
Compared with SI8660BB-AS1R, SI8660BB-B-IS1 omits automotive process controls and documentation but matches performance, while ADUM6600ARWZ trades timing accuracy and configurable fail-safe for integrated power - making SI8660BB-AS1R optimal for AEC-Q100-compliant, timing-critical traction systems.

FAQ
What is the isolation rating and safety certification status of SI8660BB-AS1R?
SI8660BB-AS1R has a 2.5 kVRMS isolation rating and is certified to UL 1577, CSA Component Notice 5A, VDE 0884-10, and CQC GB4943.1 standards for reinforced insulation. These certifications validate its suitability for functional isolation in automotive battery systems up to 800 V DC bus voltage.
Does SI8660BB-AS1R require external startup initialization or configuration?
No, SI8660BB-AS1R requires no startup initialization. It begins transmitting valid data within 40 µs of VDD application due to its RF-modulation architecture. The device enters normal operation automatically once both VDD1 and VDD2 exceed their UVLO thresholds (2.24 V rising).
How does the fail-safe default-low feature operate in SI8660BB-AS1R?
In SI8660BB-AS1R, when VDD1 is unpowered but VDD2 remains active, all six outputs default to logic-low - a factory-set behavior confirmed by the "BB" and "-AS1" ordering code. This ensures safe gate driver disablement during MCU power loss in automotive fault scenarios.
What is the maximum achievable data rate and timing jitter for SI8660BB-AS1R?
SI8660BB-AS1R supports up to 150 Mbps with 350 ps peak eye diagram jitter. At 100 Mbps, propagation delay is 8.0 ns typical with 0.5 ns channel-to-channel skew - enabling precise synchronization in multi-sensor motor control systems.
Can SI8660BB-AS1R operate with mismatched supply voltages on VDD1 and VDD2?
Yes, SI8660BB-AS1R supports independent 2.5–5.5 V supplies on VDD1 and VDD2. For example, it can interface a 3.3 V MCU (VDD1) to a 5 V gate driver (VDD2) without level-shifting components, maintaining full timing specifications across the operating range.
