Product details
Overview
SI86SL40BE-IS2R from Skyworks Solutions is a 4-channel, low-power digital isolator with reinforced 6000 VRMS isolation, 150 Mbps data rate, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive systems. It features Schmitt-trigger inputs, tri-state outputs with enable, selectable fail-safe mode (default high/low), and operates across –40 to 125 °C with 2.25–5.5 V supply on both sides. It is used in battery management systems and traction inverters requiring robust galvanic isolation.
For engineers reviewing the SI86SL40BE-IS2R datasheet, SI86SL40BE-IS2R pinout, SI86SL40BE-IS2R application, or SI86SL40BE-IS2R equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6000 VRMS reinforced insulation per UL 1577 and VDE 60747-17, sleep-mode capability via SMb pin, and compatibility with isolated SPI and bidirectional bus architectures in high-noise automotive power electronics.
Technical Context
The SI86SL40BE-IS2R implements RF-based on/off keying modulation across a semiconductor isolation barrier, eliminating startup initialization and enabling immediate operation after power-up. Its architecture supports independent undervoltage lockout (UVLO) and reset monitoring on both sides (VDD1/VDD2), with RSTB thresholds at ~1.7 V and UVLO hysteresis of 105–160 mV.
It integrates four isolated channels with configurable directionality and includes an active-low SMb pin that places the device into sleep mode (750 µA per side) while retaining one always-on channel to monitor SMb state. Fail-safe output defaults are set by ordering option and enforced during unpowered input-side conditions with powered output-side supplies.

Pinout & Package
SI86SL40BE-IS2R is housed in a narrow-body SOIC-16 package (NB SOIC-16) with 7.5 mm creepage/clearance, supporting 6000 VRMS isolation. Pin functions are defined per Figure 2 (Si86S64x/L4x) in the datasheet.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1, GND1 | Side A power and ground | Supplies isolated input-side logic; bypassed with 0.1 µF + 10 µF capacitors placed adjacent to pins. |
| A1–A4 | Side A digital I/O | Four unidirectional or bidirectional input channels; compatible with CMOS/Schmitt-trigger logic levels. |
| VDD2, GND2 | Side B power and ground | Supplies isolated output-side logic; independent of Side A supply for true galvanic separation. |
| B1–B4 | Side B digital I/O | Four corresponding isolated output channels; output state follows A-side inputs with configurable fail-safe default. |
| EN1, EN2 | Active-high enable | Tri-states all outputs on respective side when low; enables single-point control of output drivers. |
| SMb | Active-low sleep mode | Enters ultra-low-power sleep (750 µA/side) when pulled low; retains wake-up capability via dedicated monitoring channel. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No start-up initialization | RF modulation architecture eliminates boot delay - outputs become valid within 0.3 ms of VDD stabilization, critical for fast-reacting safety systems. |

| Selectable fail-safe mode | Ordering option sets default output state (high or low) during input-side power loss - prevents undefined states in BMS fault detection circuits. |
| Sleep mode with SMb | Reduces quiescent current to 750 µA per side while maintaining wake-up readiness - extends standby time in always-on vehicle modules. |
| High CMTI immunity | ≥100 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity - maintains signal integrity in high-switching-frequency SiC inverter gate drive circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM140D0BRIZ | 4-channel, 150 Mbps, 5000 VRMS, no sleep mode, 2.5–5.5 V supply | Lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and SMb-controlled sleep; suitable for industrial but not automotive-grade designs | Choose ADUM140D0BRIZ only if automotive qualification and ultra-low-power sleep are not required. |
| ISO7741FDWR | 4-channel, 100 Mbps, 5000 VRMS, 2.25–5.5 V, no SMb pin, lower CMTI (85 kV/µs) | Lower data rate and CMTI limit suitability to non-inverter applications like isolated ADC interfaces | Select ISO7741FDWR where cost sensitivity outweighs need for 150 Mbps or >100 kV/µs CMTI in non-safety-critical roles. |
Compared with ADUM140D0BRIZ and ISO7741FDWR, SI86SL40BE-IS2R delivers higher isolation (6000 vs. 5000 VRMS), automotive qualification, and integrated sleep control-making it uniquely suited for ASIL-B/C traction inverter and BMS signal isolation where reliability, timing precision, and power efficiency are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of SI86SL40BE-IS2R and which safety standards does it meet?
SI86SL40BE-IS2R provides 6000 VRMS reinforced isolation per UL 1577 and VDE 60747-17. It is certified to CSA 62368-1 and 60601-1, and CQC GB4943.1. These ratings are validated for 1-minute withstand and support functional safety requirements in automotive battery management and traction inverter systems where reinforced insulation is mandated.
Does SI86SL40BE-IS2R require external initialization or configuration after power-up?
No, SI86SL40BE-IS2R requires no start-up initialization due to its RF on/off keying architecture. Outputs become valid within 0.3 ms of VDD crossing the UVLO threshold (~2.18 V), and the device enters normal operation immediately-eliminating boot delays critical in automotive safety-critical control loops.
How does the SMb pin function in SI86SL40BE-IS2R and what power savings does it enable?
The SMb pin in SI86SL40BE-IS2R is an active-low sleep mode control. When driven low, it reduces total quiescent current to 750 µA per side while keeping one channel active to monitor SMb state. This enables rapid wake-up (<1 µs) and is ideal for intermittent-operation modules in battery electric vehicles where standby power must be minimized.
What is the maximum data rate supported by SI86SL40BE-IS2R and how does it compare to legacy optocouplers?
SI86SL40BE-IS2R supports up to 150 Mbps, significantly exceeding legacy optocouplers (typically ≤10 Mbps). Its 10 ns typical propagation delay and 3.5 ns pulse width distortion enable precise timing in high-speed serial interfaces such as isolated SPI and QSPI-making it suitable for real-time control in SiC/GaN-based power converters where optocouplers introduce unacceptable latency.
Can SI86SL40BE-IS2R be used in bidirectional communication applications such as isolated QSPI buses?
Yes, SI86SL40BE-IS2R supports bidirectional signal routing through its four isolated channels and configurable EN1/EN2 pins. While not a dedicated QSPI isolator like Si86SQ44, its channel independence and tri-state outputs allow implementation of half-duplex isolated QSPI data lanes-particularly useful in memory interface isolation for automotive domain controllers requiring 150 Mbps throughput and reinforced safety.
