Product details
Overview
SI86SO20BE-IS4 from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel, inverting digital isolator with reinforced 6000 VRMS isolation, 150 Mbps data rate, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive systems. It features Schmitt-trigger inputs, selectable fail-safe output (default low), and operates across 2.25–5.5 V supply rails. Used in battery management systems and traction inverters where high CMTI and precise timing are critical.
For engineers reviewing the SI86SO20BE-IS4 datasheet, SI86SO20BE-IS4 pinout, SI86SO20BE-IS4 application, or SI86SO20BE-IS4 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, automotive-grade safety certifications (UL, VDE, CSA, CQC), and real-world design context for isolated signal transmission in high-noise EV powertrain subsystems.
Technical Context
The SI86SO20BE-IS4 implements RF-based on/off keying across a semiconductor isolation barrier-eliminating startup initialization and enabling robust noise immunity without optical degradation. Its dual-channel architecture supports independent side-A and side-B power domains (VDD1/GND1 and VDD2/GND2) with separate UVLO and reset thresholds per side.
It integrates input deglitch filtering (36 ns), 10 ns typical propagation delay, and 100 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity (CMTI). Fail-safe operation defaults outputs to logic low during unpowered conditions on the input side, ensuring deterministic behavior in BMS fault states.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data rate | 150 Mbps - supports high-speed CAN FD, SPI, and isolated ADC interface timing in automotive inverters |
| Isolation voltage | 6000 VRMS - meets reinforced insulation requirements per UL 1577 for 600 VAC mains and EV battery isolation barriers |
| Propagation delay | 5–14 ns - enables sub-100 ns loop timing in motor control gate drivers and fast-response feedback paths |
| CMTI | 100 kV/µs - prevents data corruption during fast dv/dt transients in 800 V traction inverters |
| Supply range | 2.25–5.5 V - interoperable with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends without level shifters |
| Operating temperature | –40 to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood and battery-pack mounting in BEV/OBC applications |
| Fail-safe mode | Default low output - ensures safe shutdown state when side-A power fails in battery monitoring circuits |
Pinout & Package
SI86SO20BE-IS4 uses an NB SOIC-8 package (3.9 mm creepage/clearance) with reinforced insulation. Pin 1 = VDD1, Pin 2 = A1, Pin 3 = A2, Pin 4 = GND1, Pin 5 = GND2, Pin 6 = B1, Pin 7 = B2, Pin 8 = VDD2. Pins A1/A2 and B1/B2 are bidirectional digital I/O channels with inverting logic relationship between sides.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1, VDD2 | Independent power supplies | Enable galvanic separation of control (3.3 V MCU) and power-side (5 V gate driver) domains |
| GND1, GND2 | Isolated reference grounds | Prevent ground-loop currents between sensitive analog sensing and noisy power stages |
| A1, A2 | Side-A input/output terminals | Accept CMOS/Schmitt-trigger signals from controller; drive side-A with default-low fail-safe |
| B1, B2 | Side-B input/output terminals | Deliver inverted, isolated signals to power-stage peripherals; tolerate ±1500 V common-mode transients |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM120N0BRZ-RL7 | Single-channel, non-inverting, 150 Mbps, 3000 VRMS isolation, SOIC-8 | Lacks dual-channel integration and reinforced 6000 VRMS rating; not AEC-Q100 qualified | Use only in non-automotive, lower-isolation industrial interfaces where channel count and safety certification are secondary |
| ISO7721DWR | Dual-channel, non-inverting, 100 Mbps, 5000 VRMS, SOIC-8, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 | Lower data rate and isolation voltage; no selectable fail-safe mode; rated only to +105 °C | Acceptable for cost-sensitive 12 V automotive body electronics but insufficient for 800 V traction systems requiring Grade 0 and 6000 VRMS |
Compared with ADUM120N0BRZ-RL7 and ISO7721DWR, SI86SO20BE-IS4 uniquely combines dual-channel inversion, 6000 VRMS reinforced isolation, AEC-Q100 Grade 0, and default-low fail-safe-making it the only option qualified for functional safety-critical BMS and inverter gate-drive isolation in battery electric vehicles.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of SI86SO20BE-IS4 and which safety standards does it meet?
SI86SO20BE-IS4 is rated for 6000 VRMS isolation per UL 1577 and carries reinforced insulation certification per IEC 60747-17, CSA 62368-1/60601-1, and CQC GB4943.1. It achieves 1500 VRMS working voltage in its NB SOIC-8 package, making it suitable for 800 V battery systems and medical equipment requiring two means of patient protection (2 MOPP).
Does SI86SO20BE-IS4 support inverting logic between input and output sides?
Yes, SI86SO20BE-IS4 is an inverting isolator: logic high on A1/A2 produces logic low on B1/B2, and vice versa. This inversion is inherent to the SOx variant and is leveraged in feedback loops and complementary gate drive architectures where signal polarity reversal across isolation is required by system design.
What fail-safe behavior does SI86SO20BE-IS4 exhibit during input-side power loss?
SI86SO20BE-IS4 is ordered with default-low fail-safe mode (denoted by "B" in part number suffix). When VDD1 drops below UVLO threshold, outputs B1/B2 are actively pulled low via internal circuitry-ensuring safe deactivation of downstream power devices in battery monitoring or gate driver applications.
How does the 36 ns input deglitch filter in SI86SO20BE-IS4 improve system robustness?
The 36 ns deglitch filter rejects narrow noise pulses-such as those induced by IGBT/SiC switching edges-before they propagate across the isolation barrier. This eliminates false triggering in isolated fault detection lines and ADC sampling clocks without requiring external RC filters or firmware debouncing, reducing BOM count and latency.
What is the maximum data rate and propagation delay specification for SI86SO20BE-IS4?
SI86SO20BE-IS4 supports up to 150 Mbps data rate with typical propagation delay of 10 ns and worst-case delay of 14 ns (at 2.5 V). This enables use in high-speed isolated SPI interfaces for real-time sensor fusion and fast-loop control in automotive power electronics where timing precision is critical.
