Product details
Overview
SI86S641HE-IS2R from Skyworks Solutions is a 4-channel reinforced digital isolator with 6000 VRMS isolation, 150 Mbps data rate, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive systems. It features bidirectional channel configuration, Schmitt-trigger inputs, and selectable fail-safe output (default low) for isolated communication in battery management and traction inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SI86S641HE-IS2R datasheet, SI86S641HE-IS2R pinout, SI86S641HE-IS2R application, or SI86S641HE-IS2R equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, automotive-grade safety certifications (IEC 60747-17, UL 1577), and real-world use context for high-reliability isolated signal transfer.
Technical Context
The SI86S641HE-IS2R implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and enabling robust noise immunity. Its architecture supports independent UVLO and reset per side (VDD1/VDD2), with 100 kΩ weak pulldown during unpowered states and configurable fail-safe outputs.
It operates across 2.25–5.5 V supplies on both sides, delivers 10 ns typical propagation delay and 3.5 ns pulse width distortion, and integrates tri-state outputs with enable control (EN1/EN2). The device supports 100 kV/µs transient immunity and meets reinforced insulation requirements per IEC 60747-17 and UL 1577.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
SI86S641HE-IS2R uses a WB SOIC-16 package with 6.0 kVRMS reinforced insulation and creepage ≥8.3 mm. Pin layout follows Figure 2 (Si86S64x/L4x) in the datasheet.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1, GND1 | Side A power supply | Provides isolated 2.25–5.5 V bias for input-side logic; requires 0.1 µF + 10 µF local bypass. |
| A1–A4 | Side A digital I/O | Four bidirectional channels with Schmitt-trigger inputs; tolerate 0.3×VDD1 to 0.7×VDD1 noise margins. |
| EN1 | Side A output enable | Active-high control: drives all A-side outputs into high-impedance when low, enabling bus sharing. |
| Isolation Barrier | Dielectric separation | Robust silicon-dioxide barrier certified to IEC 60747-17 reinforced insulation standards. |
| B1–B4 | Side B digital I/O | Galvanically isolated outputs mirroring A1–A4; support 4 mA sink/source at 0.4 V VOL / VDD–0.4 V VOH. |
| EN2 | Side B output enable | Independent tri-state control for B-side outputs; decouples isolated peripherals without breaking ground loops. |
| VDD2, GND2 | Side B power supply | Electrically isolated 2.25–5.5 V domain for secondary-side circuitry; no shared ground reference with Side A. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No start-up initialization | RF modulation architecture eliminates boot delay-output follows input immediately after VDD stabilization (tSTART = 0.3 ms). |
| Tri-state outputs with enable | Dual EN1/EN2 pins allow independent high-impedance control of each side, enabling multi-drop isolated buses. |
| Selectable fail-safe mode | Ordering option "HE" specifies default-low output during VDD1/VDD2 undervoltage, critical for BMS fault signaling. |
| Schmitt-trigger + CMOS thresholds | Input hysteresis ≥0.15×VDD rejects >36 ns noise pulses, preventing glitches in noisy motor drive environments. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 | Qualified for automotive applications up to +125 °C ambient, with PPAP documentation and IMDS/CAMDS compliance support. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM4401BRIZ | 4-channel, 100 Mbps, 5000 VRMS, 2.7–5.5 V supply, no AEC-Q100 qualification | Targeted at industrial automation; lacks automotive qualification and 6000 VRMS rating | Choose for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where 5000 VRMS suffices and AEC-Q100 is not required. |
| ISO7741FDWR | 4-channel, 100 Mbps, 5000 VRMS, 2.25–5.5 V, VDE-certified, no sleep mode | Designed for general-purpose isolation; missing fail-safe default-low option and 150 Mbps capability | Select when VDE certification is mandatory and 100 Mbps bandwidth meets system timing needs. |
Compared with ADUM4401BRIZ and ISO7741FDWR, SI86S641HE-IS2R delivers higher isolation (6000 vs. 5000 VRMS), faster data rate (150 vs. 100 Mbps), and automotive qualification-making it optimal for next-generation EV power electronics where safety, speed, and environmental ruggedness are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of SI86S641HE-IS2R and which safety standards does it meet?
SI86S641HE-IS2R provides 6000 VRMS reinforced isolation per UL 1577 (1-minute test) and complies with IEC 60747-17, CSA 62368-1/60601-1, and CQC GB4943.1. This rating supports 800 VDC working voltage in automotive traction systems and meets double-insulation requirements for Class I medical equipment.
Does SI86S641HE-IS2R require external startup configuration or initialization firmware?
No. SI86S641HE-IS2R uses RF on/off keying architecture with no start-up initialization required. Outputs follow inputs within 0.3 ms after VDD1/VDD2 rise above UVLO+ (2.18 V), and internal reset circuitry ensures deterministic behavior during power transitions-eliminating boot code dependencies.
How does the fail-safe mode function in SI86S641HE-IS2R, and how is it configured?
SI86S641HE-IS2R is ordered with "HE" suffix to specify default-low fail-safe mode. When either VDD1 or VDD2 drops below UVLO– (2.05 V), outputs enter a known low state-critical for BMS fault signaling. Configuration is fixed at manufacture; no external pins or registers control this behavior.
What are the supply voltage requirements and bypass capacitor recommendations for SI86S641HE-IS2R?
SI86S641HE-IS2R operates from 2.25 V to 5.5 V on both VDD1 and VDD2. Each supply requires a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to the pin and a 10 µF bulk capacitor within 10 mm-per Skyworks AN1359. This dual-capacitor network suppresses high-frequency noise and sustains transient current demands during 150 Mbps data bursts.
Can SI86S641HE-IS2R support bidirectional communication on individual channels?
Yes. SI86S641HE-IS2R supports true bidirectional signal transfer per channel (A1↔B1, A2↔B2, etc.) using independent EN1/EN2 enables. Unlike unidirectional isolators, it allows dynamic direction reversal without external logic-enabling isolated I²C, SMBus, or half-duplex SPI interfaces with minimal PCB footprint.
