Product details
Overview
SI86S621BC-AS from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel, high-speed digital isolator with reinforced 6000 VRMS isolation, 150 Mbps data rate, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive systems. It features Schmitt-trigger inputs, selectable fail-safe output (default low), and operates across 2.25–5.5 V supply rails. Used in battery management systems and traction inverters where galvanic separation and noise immunity are critical.
For engineers reviewing the SI86S621BC-AS datasheet, SI86S621BC-AS pinout, SI86S621BC-AS application, or SI86S621BC-AS equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, automotive-grade timing behavior (9 ns typical propagation delay), and real-world isolation barrier performance (100 kV/µs CMTI) - all confirmed against Skyworks' official 206552B datasheet dated August 17, 2023.
Technical Context
The SI86S621BC-AS implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and enabling robust noise immunity without optical degradation. Its architecture supports independent UVLO and reset monitoring per side (VDD1/VDD2), with RSTB thresholds at ~1.7 V and UVLO hysteresis of 131 mV typical.
It integrates input deglitch filters (36 ns), CMOS/Schmitt thresholds, and failsafe logic that forces outputs low during unpowered input-side conditions while maintaining valid output states under powered-VDD2 operation. Timing is characterized at 5.0 V, 3.3 V, and 2.5 V supplies with guaranteed pulse width transmission down to 6.7 ns.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data rate | 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial interfaces like SPI, RS-485 transceiver control, and isolated ADC/DAC clocking without bottlenecks. |
| Propagation delay | 5–14 ns (typ. 9 ns at 5 V) - enables tight timing closure in motor gate driver feedback loops and real-time BMS cell monitoring. |
| Isolation rating | 6000 VRMS (1 min, UL 1577) - meets reinforced insulation requirements for 1000 VDC bus systems in EV traction inverters. |
| CMTI | 100 kV/µs minimum - rejects fast common-mode transients induced by IGBT switching in power converters. |
| Supply range | 2.25–5.5 V per side - allows direct interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends without level shifters. |
| Fail-safe mode | Default low output - ensures safe shutdown state in onboard chargers when primary-side power fails. |
| Operating temperature | –40 to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive environments per AEC-Q100 Grade 1. |
Pinout & Package
SI86S621BC-AS uses an NB SOIC-8 package (3.9 mm creepage/clearance) with reinforced insulation barrier separating Side A (pins 1–4) and Side B (pins 5–8).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 | Side A power supply | Supplies isolated input-side logic; must be bypassed with 0.1 µF + 10 µF capacitors near pin. |
| GND1 | Side A ground | Reference for Side A I/O; requires separate PCB plane from GND2 to maintain isolation integrity. |
| A1, A2 | Side A digital inputs | Dual-channel input signals; accept Schmitt-trigger thresholds (0.3×VDD1 / 0.7×VDD1) for noise rejection. |
| NC | No connect | Pin 3 is internally unconnected; must remain floating - no routing or soldering allowed. |
| GND2 | Side B ground | Reference for Side B outputs; electrically isolated from GND1; defines safety boundary. |
| B1, B2 | Side B digital outputs | Isolated output channels; 50 Ω nominal impedance - require controlled-impedance PCB traces for >50 Mbps signals. |
| VDD2 | Side B power supply | Supplies isolated output-side logic; independent of VDD1 - enables level-shifting between domains. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RF-based isolation | Eliminates LED aging and temperature drift issues of optocouplers; provides stable 150 Mbps performance over full –40 to +125 °C range. |
| Selectably fail-safe output | Factory-configured default-low behavior ensures BMS fault signals remain asserted during input-side brownout - no external pull-downs needed. |
| Input deglitch filter | 36 ns filtering removes EMI-induced glitches from noisy motor control or charger enable lines without adding latency to valid edges. |
| Independent UVLO/reset per side | Prevents metastability during asymmetric power sequencing - e.g., VDD2 powered before VDD1 in cold-start EV systems. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 | Validated for automotive use with PPAP documentation support, IMDS/CAMDS compliance, and zero defect manufacturing flow. |
Applications
| Battery Management System (BMS) | Traction Inverter Control |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM121N0BRZ-RL7 | Single-channel, 150 Mbps, 3000 VRMS isolation, 10 ns propagation delay, 2.7–5.5 V supply. | Lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and reinforced 6000 VRMS rating; suitable for industrial but not automotive traction systems. | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial motor drives where 3000 VRMS suffices and dual-channel is not required. |
| ISO7721DWR | Dual-channel, 100 Mbps, 5000 VRMS, 11 ns propagation delay, 2.25–5.5 V, failsafe configurable via pin. | Lower CMTI (85 kV/µs), no AEC-Q100, and reduced isolation voltage limit it to non-automotive BMS modules. | Prefer when system-level certification only requires 5000 VRMS and design prioritizes TI's broad ecosystem support over automotive qualification. |
Compared with ADUM121N0BRZ-RL7 and ISO7721DWR, SI86S621BC-AS uniquely combines dual-channel 150 Mbps speed, AEC-Q100 Grade 1, 6000 VRMS reinforced isolation, and factory-set default-low fail-safe - making it the only option qualified for safety-critical automotive traction and charging applications requiring full compliance with IEC 60747-17 and UL 1577.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of SI86S621BC-AS and which standards does it meet?
The SI86S621BC-AS is rated for 6000 VRMS isolation per UL 1577 (1 minute), with reinforced insulation certified to IEC 60747-17 (2121 Vpeak), CSA 62368-1, and CQC GB4943.1. These ratings are validated for the NB SOIC-8 package and apply directly to the SI86S621BC-AS ordering option - enabling use in 1000 VDC automotive systems requiring two MOPP or reinforced insulation.
Does SI86S621BC-AS require external start-up initialization or configuration?
No. The SI86S621BC-AS uses RF-based on/off keying and requires no firmware, register writes, or external configuration. It begins transmitting valid data within 300 µs of VDD1/VDD2 reaching UVLO+ (2.18 V typical), with outputs held low during startup by internal 100 kΩ pulldowns until stabilization - a key advantage over UART-configurable isolators.
How does the fail-safe mode operate in SI86S621BC-AS?
The SI86S621BC-AS is factory-configured for default-low fail-safe operation: when VDD1 is unpowered (<2.25 V) but VDD2 remains active, outputs B1 and B2 are actively driven low. This behavior is hardwired - no external components or pins are needed to enforce safe shutdown in battery management or charger control circuits.
What is the maximum data rate supported by SI86S621BC-AS and under what conditions?
The SI86S621BC-AS supports up to 150 Mbps across its full operating temperature range (–40 to +125 °C) and supply range (2.25–5.5 V). This is verified per Skyworks datasheet Table 6 and applies to both channels simultaneously with CL = 15 pF loads and standard logic thresholds - no derating required for automotive thermal environments.
Can SI86S621BC-AS interface directly with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains?
Yes. SI86S621BC-AS supports independent 2.25–5.5 V supplies on VDD1 and VDD2, allowing native interfacing with 3.3 V MCUs on Side A and 5 V gate drivers on Side B. Input thresholds scale with VDDx (VIH = 0.7×VDDx, VIL = 0.3×VDDx), and output drive strength (±4 mA) is compatible with both logic families without level shifters.
