Product details
Overview
SI86S660BC-AS1R from Skyworks Solutions is a 6-channel, bidirectional digital isolator with reinforced 6000 VRMS isolation, designed for high-noise industrial and automotive systems requiring galvanic separation between controller and power stage domains. It supports DC–150 Mbps data rates, operates across 2.25–5.5 V supplies on both sides, and features selectable fail-safe output (default low), 10 ns typical propagation delay, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use in battery management and traction inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SI86S660BC-AS1R datasheet, SI86S660BC-AS1R pinout, SI86S660BC-AS1R application, or SI86S660BC-AS1R equivalent, key selection criteria include reinforced IEC 60747-17 certification, 6-channel independent I/O mapping, tri-state enable control per side, Schmitt-trigger + CMOS input thresholds, and compatibility with isolated ADC/DAC interfaces and motor gate driver feedback loops.
Technical Context
The SI86S660BC-AS1R implements RF-based on/off keying modulation across a semiconductor isolation barrier-eliminating startup initialization and enabling robust noise immunity up to 100 kV/µs CMTI. Its architecture supports independent supply domains (VDD1/GND1 and VDD2/GND2) with dual undervoltage lockout (UVLO) and reset circuitry per side, ensuring deterministic behavior during asymmetric power sequencing.
All six channels are fully bidirectional and independently configurable via EN1/EN2 pins, with no direction-control pin required. The device uses HF XMTR/RCVR circuit blocks per channel and includes internal 100 kΩ weak pulldowns on unpowered outputs, satisfying fail-safe default-low operation as specified by the "BC" ordering option.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 6000 VRMS (1 min, UL 1577); reinforced insulation per IEC 60747-17 - enables direct interface with 1000 VDC bus systems. |
| Data Rate | DC to 150 Mbps - supports high-speed serial links including isolated SPI, CAN FD gate drivers, and real-time sensor feedback. |
| Propagation Delay | 10 ns typical - ensures tight timing alignment in closed-loop motor control and fast ADC sampling systems. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.25 V to 5.5 V per side - allows interoperability with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends without level shifters. |

Pinout & Package
SI86S660BC-AS1R is housed in a WB SOIC-16 package (wide-body, 10.3 mm creepage/clearance), supporting 6000 VRMS isolation. Pin assignments follow Figure 4 (Si86S660) in the datasheet.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 | Side A supply | Power for A-side I/Os (A1–A6) and EN1; must be bypassed with 0.1 µF + 10 µF capacitors. |

| A1–A6 | Side A digital I/O | 6 bidirectional isolated channels; each maps directly to B1–B6 across barrier. |
| EN1 | Side A output enable | Active-high control: drives all A-side outputs into high-impedance when low. |
| GND2 | Side B ground | Reference for B-side signals; galvanically isolated from GND1. |
| B1–B6 | Side B digital I/O | 6 bidirectional isolated channels; electrically mirrored to A1–A6. |
| EN2 | Side B output enable | Active-high control: drives all B-side outputs into high-impedance when low. |
| VDD2 | Side B supply | Power for B-side I/Os (B1–B6) and EN2; requires independent bypassing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No start-up initialization | RF carrier modulation eliminates boot sequence delays - outputs become valid within 0.3 ms of VDD stabilization. |
| Tri-state output control | Dual EN1/EN2 pins allow independent high-Z control of A- and B-side I/Os - essential for shared-bus arbitration. |
| Schmitt-trigger + CMOS inputs | Input hysteresis ≥0.15×VDDx and VIH/VIL thresholds at 0.7/0.3×VDDx - reject >36 ns noise glitches without external filtering. |
| Reinforced safety certification | UL 1577, VDE 60747-17, CSA 62368-1, CQC GB4943.1 - satisfies end-equipment requirements for medical and EV charging systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM6601ARIZ | 6-channel, 5000 VRMS, 25 Mbps max, integrated isolated DC-DC converter on chip. | Lacks 150 Mbps speed and 6000 VRMS rating; suited for lower-speed, self-powered isolated logic where supply generation is needed. | Choose ADUM6601ARIZ only if isolated power rail generation is required and data rate ≤25 Mbps suffices. |
| ISO6760FDWR | 6-channel, 5000 VRMS, 50 Mbps, TI's reinforced isolator with lower CMTI (85 kV/µs). | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; limited to industrial temp range (–40 °C to +105 °C); lacks fail-safe default-low option. | ISO6760FDWR is viable for cost-sensitive industrial automation where 50 Mbps and 5000 VRMS meet requirements. |
Compared with ADUM6601ARIZ and ISO6760FDWR, SI86S660BC-AS1R delivers higher isolation voltage (6000 vs. 5000 VRMS), faster data rate (150 vs. 25/50 Mbps), automotive-grade qualification, and deterministic fail-safe behavior - making it the preferred choice for high-reliability EV and industrial power systems.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the SI86S660BC-AS1R and which safety standards does it meet?
The SI86S660BC-AS1R provides 6000 VRMS isolation for 1 minute per UL 1577 and is certified to IEC 60747-17 (reinforced), CSA 62368-1, VDE 62368-1, and CQC GB4943.1. This rating enables direct use in 1000 VDC bus systems and satisfies safety requirements for EV battery packs and medical equipment. SI86S660BC-AS1R meets these standards without derating at full temperature range.
Does the SI86S660BC-AS1R require external configuration or initialization after power-up?
No. The SI86S660BC-AS1R uses RF on/off keying modulation and requires no firmware, register writes, or startup sequence. Outputs become valid within 0.3 ms of VDD crossing UVLO+, with deterministic default-low behavior during brownout. SI86S660BC-AS1R achieves this through hardware-only architecture-no clock or reset pin needed.
How many independent channels does the SI86S660BC-AS1R support, and are they bidirectional?
The SI86S660BC-AS1R integrates six fully independent, bidirectional digital isolation channels (A1–A6 ↔ B1–B6), each with identical electrical characteristics and timing. No direction-control pin is required-each channel passes data in both directions simultaneously. SI86S660BC-AS1R supports true 6-wire isolated serial links or split I²C/SPI signal routing.
What is the meaning of the "BC" suffix in SI86S660BC-AS1R?
The "BC" suffix denotes the fail-safe output configuration: default-low behavior when either VDD1 or VDD2 is unpowered. During undervoltage conditions, outputs are actively pulled low via internal 100 kΩ resistors. SI86S660BC-AS1R differs from "BD" (default-high) variants and ensures safe shutdown in motor control or power supply enable circuits.
Can the SI86S660BC-AS1R operate with different supply voltages on Side A and Side B?
Yes. SI86S660BC-AS1R supports independent 2.25–5.5 V supplies on VDD1 and VDD2-enabling direct interfacing between 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V gate drivers or analog sensors. Each side has its own UVLO and reset circuitry, allowing asymmetric power sequencing without latch-up or undefined states. SI86S660BC-AS1R maintains full functionality across all valid VDD combinations.
