Overview
SI86S641HC-AS1 from Skyworks Solutions is a 4-channel, reinforced-isolation digital isolator with bidirectional signal capability, 150 Mbps data rate, 10 ns typical propagation delay, and 6000 VRMS isolation rating. It operates across 2.25–5.5 V supplies and supports industrial motor control, isolated ADC/DAC interfaces, and battery management systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI86S641HC-AS1 datasheet, SI86S641HC-AS1 pinout, SI86S641HC-AS1 application, or SI86S641HC-AS1 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, fail-safe output configuration, AEC-Q100 qualification status, IEC 60747-17 compliance, and real-world use context for high-noise automotive and industrial designs.
Technical Context
The SI86S641HC-AS1 implements RF-based on/off keying modulation across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and enabling robust noise immunity. Its architecture supports independent UVLO monitoring per side (VDD1/VDD2), 100 kV/µs CMTI, and configurable fail-safe output states (default-high or default-low) via ordering option.
It features Schmitt-trigger + CMOS threshold inputs, tri-state outputs with enable control (EN1/EN2), and integrated sleep mode support via external pin control. The device is rated for –40 °C to +125 °C operation and meets UL 1577, CSA 62368-1/60601-1, VDE 60747-17, and CQC GB4943.1 safety standards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data rate | DC to 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial links including SPI, QSPI, and isolated UART without timing bottlenecks. |
| Isolation rating | 6000 VRMS (1 min) - enables safe interface between hazardous mains-referenced circuits and SELV microcontroller domains. |
| Propagation delay | 10 ns typical - ensures tight timing alignment in feedback loops for motor gate drivers and power converter control. |
| Supply voltage | 2.25–5.5 V - allows direct interfacing with 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level-shifting components. |
| Operating temperature | –40 to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial ambient environments without derating. |
| CMTI | ≥100 kV/µs - rejects fast transient coupling in noisy inverter and charger applications where dV/dt exceeds 50 kV/µs. |
| Fail-safe mode | Selectable default-high or default-low output - prevents undefined states during brownout or power sequencing in BMS and traction inverters. |
Pinout & Package
SI86S641HC-AS1 uses a WB SOIC-16 (wide-body SOIC-16) package with 8.0 mm creepage/clearance, supporting 6000 VRMS reinforced insulation. Pin numbering follows standard SOIC-16 layout with isolation barrier separating Side A (pins 1–8) and Side B (pins 9–16).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1, GND1 | Side A supply and ground | Power domain for input-side logic; bypass requires 0.1 µF + 10 µF capacitors placed near pins. |
| A1–A4 | Side A digital I/O | Four bidirectional isolated channels; compatible with CMOS/Schmitt-trigger logic thresholds. |
| EN1 | Side A output enable | Active-high control: drives all A-side outputs into high-impedance when low. |
| VDD2, GND2 | Side B supply and ground | Independent power domain for output-side logic; enables galvanic separation of control and power stages. |
| B1–B4 | Side B digital I/O | Four corresponding isolated channels mirroring A1–A4; supports reverse-direction signal flow. |
| EN2 | Side B output enable | Active-high control: places all B-side outputs in high-impedance state when asserted low. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the SI86S641HC-AS1?
The SI86S641HC-AS1 has a certified 6000 VRMS isolation rating for 1 minute per UL 1577, validated under reinforced insulation per IEC 60747-17. This rating applies to the WB SOIC-16 package and enables use in 1000 V DC systems such as EV onboard chargers and solar inverters. The device maintains this rating across its full operating temperature range of –40 °C to +125 °C.
Does the SI86S641HC-AS1 support fail-safe output configuration?
Yes, the SI86S641HC-AS1 offers selectable fail-safe output behavior via ordering option: default-high or default-low output state when the input-side supply (VDD1) is unpowered but the output-side supply (VDD2) remains active. This feature is implemented in silicon and does not require external components. The specific configuration for SI86S641HC-AS1 is defined by its part number suffix and documented in Skyworks' ordering guide.
Is the SI86S641HC-AS1 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the SI86S641HC-AS1 is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified, meaning it is tested and certified for operation from –40 °C to +125 °C ambient temperature with full reliability validation including HTOL, TC, and ESD. It also supports AIAG-compliant PPAP documentation and IMDS/CAMDS reporting-making it suitable for use in battery management systems, traction inverters, and onboard chargers in BEV/HEV platforms.
What is the propagation delay and pulse width distortion of the SI86S641HC-AS1?
The SI86S641HC-AS1 has a typical propagation delay of 10 ns and pulse width distortion of 3.5 ns, measured at VDD = 5.0 V and TA = 25 °C. These values remain stable across temperature and supply voltage variations due to its RF-based modulation architecture. Low PWD ensures minimal duty cycle distortion in PWM isolation applications such as gate driver control in motor inverters.
Can the SI86S641HC-AS1 be used in SPI isolation applications?
Yes, the SI86S641HC-AS1 supports SPI isolation through its four independent bidirectional channels. While not a dedicated SPI isolator like the Si86SS41, it can isolate MOSI, MISO, SCLK, and CS lines using discrete channel mapping. Its 150 Mbps data rate and 10 ns propagation delay ensure reliable full-speed SPI operation up to 37.5 MHz (with 4-bit transfer per clock), making it suitable for isolated ADC/DAC and sensor interfaces.
