Product details
Overview
SI86S631BE-AS2 from Skyworks Solutions is a 3-channel, reinforced digital isolator with 6000 VRMS isolation rating, 150 Mbps data rate, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive systems. It features Schmitt-trigger + CMOS inputs, tri-state outputs with enable, selectable fail-safe default-high/low output, and operates across –40 to 125 °C in WB SOIC-16 package. Used in battery management systems and traction inverters where high CMTI and safety-certified galvanic isolation are required.
For engineers reviewing the SI86S631BE-AS2 datasheet, SI86S631BE-AS2 pinout, SI86S631BE-AS2 application, or SI86S631BE-AS2 equivalent, key selection criteria include reinforced IEC 60747-17 certification, 10 ns typical propagation delay, 3.5 ns pulse width distortion, 100 kV/µs transient immunity, and dual supply operation (2.25–5.5 V per side) supporting isolated ADC/DAC interfaces and motor control signal conditioning.
Technical Context
The SI86S631BE-AS2 implements RF-based on/off keying modulation across a semiconductor isolation barrier-eliminating start-up initialization and enabling robust noise immunity without optical degradation. Its architecture supports independent UVLO and reset monitoring on both sides (VDD1/VDD2), with RSTB thresholds at ~1.7 V and UVLO± hysteresis of 105–160 mV.
It delivers precise timing with 10 ns typical propagation delay and 3.5 ns pulse width distortion, while maintaining tri-state output control via EN1/EN2 pins and configurable fail-safe behavior during power loss. The device uses HF XMTR/RCVR circuitry per channel and requires only 0.1 µF + 10 µF bypass capacitors per supply rail.

| 5 A3 | Side A digital I/O | Third isolated channel; supports redundant sensing or multi-signal isolation in BMS. |
| 6 NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout guidelines. |
| 7 B1 | Side B digital I/O | Corresponding isolated output for A1; referenced to VDD2/GND2. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM3301ARWZ | 3-channel, 25 Mbps max data rate; 2.5 kVRMS isolation; no AEC-Q100 qualification; 30 ns propagation delay. | Targeted at industrial automation, not automotive-grade systems requiring reinforced insulation. | Choose ADUM3301ARWZ only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where 25 Mbps and 2.5 kVRMS suffice. |
| ISO6731FDWR | 3-channel, 50 Mbps max data rate; 5000 VRMS; AEC-Q100 Grade 1; 11 ns propagation delay; different pinout (SOIC-16 NB). | Valid for automotive BMS but lacks 6000 VRMS rating and 150 Mbps capability for next-gen OBCs. | ISO6731FDWR fits legacy automotive designs needing lower speed and narrower body, but SI86S631BE-AS2 is preferred for new 800 V platform integration. |
Compared with ADUM3301ARWZ and ISO6731FDWR, SI86S631BE-AS2 uniquely combines 150 Mbps speed, 6000 VRMS reinforced isolation, AEC-Q100 Grade 1, and 10 ns propagation delay-making it the only option qualified for high-voltage, high-bandwidth automotive power electronics where timing precision and safety certification are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the isolation rating and safety certification status of SI86S631BE-AS2?
SI86S631BE-AS2 is rated for 6000 VRMS isolation per UL 1577 and certified to IEC 60747-17 (reinforced insulation). It holds pending CSA 62368-1 and 60601-1 approvals and CQC GB4943.1 certification. These ratings are validated for 1-minute withstand and support automotive BMS and OBC designs requiring reinforced insulation per ISO 26262.
Does SI86S631BE-AS2 require external startup initialization or configuration?
No, SI86S631BE-AS2 requires no startup initialization. Its RF-based on/off keying architecture enables immediate signal transmission after VDD exits UVLO (within 0.3 ms). Outputs follow inputs directly-no firmware handshake, register programming, or clock synchronization is needed, simplifying system boot sequences in traction inverters and OBCs.
How does the fail-safe mode operate on SI86S631BE-AS2, and how is it selected?
The fail-safe mode on SI86S631BE-AS2 determines output state (high or low) when VDD1 is unpowered but VDD2 remains active. This is fixed at manufacturing via ordering option ('B' = default low, 'E' = default high). SI86S631BE-AS2 uses the 'E' variant, so outputs default high during Side A undervoltage-ensuring safe deactivation of gate drivers in battery disconnect scenarios.
What are the supply bypass requirements for SI86S631BE-AS2?
SI86S631BE-AS2 requires two bypass capacitors per supply rail: 0.1 µF ceramic and 10 µF bulk capacitor placed as close as possible to VDD1/GND1 and VDD2/GND2 pins. This stabilizes RF transmitter/receiver operation and suppresses supply noise coupling across the isolation barrier-critical for maintaining 100 kV/µs CMTI performance in motor drive applications.
Can SI86S631BE-AS2 support bidirectional signal flow on its channels?
SI86S631BE-AS2 provides three unidirectional channels (A1→B1, A2→B2, A3→B3), but bidirectional operation is achievable using external logic to control EN1/EN2 and coordinate direction. For native bidirectional support, Skyworks offers the Si86SQ44 QSPI isolator. SI86S631BE-AS2 is optimized for dedicated forward-path isolation in BMS voltage monitoring and gate drive control.
