Product details
Overview
SI88222ED-ASR from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel digital isolator with integrated isolated DC-DC converter, delivering up to 5 W output power, supporting 0–100 Mbps data rates, achieving ≤23 ns propagation delay, and rated for 5000 VRMS isolation. It operates across –40 to +125 °C and is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive systems requiring reinforced insulation and high transient immunity.
For engineers reviewing the SI88222ED-ASR datasheet, SI88222ED-ASR pinout, SI88222ED-ASR application, or SI88222ED-ASR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context on its RF-based isolation architecture, SOIC-16 wide-body package, dual unidirectional channel configuration, and integrated flyback DC-DC controller with soft-start, shutdown, and external frequency control capability.
Technical Context
The SI88222ED-ASR implements two independent unidirectional CMOS digital isolation channels using RF on-off keying across a silicon dioxide capacitive barrier, eliminating startup initialization and providing robust noise immunity. Its integrated DC-DC controller uses peak current mode control with closed-loop feedback via VSNS/COMP pins and supports both internal (VSW) and external (ESW/RSN) switch configurations.
This variant belongs to the Si8822x subfamily and features fixed 250 kHz switching frequency, SH pin for converter shutdown, SS pin for soft-start capacitor programming, and DNC/VREGB pin designated as Do Not Connect when output voltage ≤5.5 V - consistent with low-voltage input (3–5.5 V) to isolated 3/5 V operation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel isolated DC-DC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM6210ARWZ | 2-channel isolator + isolated 3.3 V DC-DC; 500 VRMS rating; no programmable shutdown or soft-start; uses iCoupler magnetic coupling. | Limited to lower isolation voltage and power (up to 2 W); not AEC-Q100 qualified; lacks RSN/ESW for high-voltage primary designs. | Choose ADUM6210ARWZ only for non-automotive, low-isolation (<1 kVRMS), space-constrained applications where magnetic coupling suffices. |
| ISO7821FDWR | Dual-channel digital isolator only - no integrated DC-DC; requires external isolated power; 5000 VRMS; 100 Mbps; 11 ns prop delay. | Requires discrete isolated DC-DC (e.g., transformer + regulator), increasing design complexity, BOM count, and board area. | Choose ISO7821FDWR when system already includes isolated power or when higher speed (11 ns) and lower power consumption outweigh integration benefits. |
Compared with ADUM6210ARWZ and ISO7821FDWR, SI88222ED-ASR uniquely combines AEC-Q100 qualification, 5000 VRMS isolation, integrated 5 W-capable DC-DC with programmable soft-start/shutdown, and RF-based timing precision - making it optimal for automotive and industrial systems demanding full functional integration and safety certification.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by SI88222ED-ASR?
The SI88222ED-ASR supports a maximum data rate of 100 Mbps across both isolation channels. This is confirmed in the official Skyworks datasheet (206584B, p.1), where all Si88x2x devices are specified for 0–100 Mbps operation. The RF-based modulation scheme enables this high rate while maintaining low propagation delay (≤23 ns) and high noise immunity. SI88222ED-ASR achieves this without requiring external clock conditioning or equalization.
Does SI88222ED-ASR include an integrated DC-DC converter?
Yes, SI88222ED-ASR integrates a fully functional isolated DC-DC converter based on a modified flyback topology. As stated in the datasheet (p.1), it delivers regulated 3.3 V or 5.0 V outputs with peak power up to 5 W when used with an external power switch. The converter includes user-adjustable features: soft-start (via SS pin), shutdown (via SH pin), and internal 250 kHz switching frequency - all confirmed for the Si8822x series.
What package type and isolation rating does SI88222ED-ASR use?
SI88222ED-ASR uses a SOIC-16 wide-body package with 10.3 mm × 10.3 mm footprint and ≥8.3 mm creepage/clearance. It is certified for 5000 VRMS isolation for one minute per UL 1577, and also meets CSA 62368-1 (reinforced insulation), VDE 62368-1, and CQC GB4943.1 standards - all explicitly listed in the "Safety Regulatory Approvals" section (p.1) of the datasheet.
Is SI88222ED-ASR qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SI88222ED-ASR is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 0, –40 to +125 °C) and designated as an automotive-grade part. The datasheet confirms automotive-specific manufacturing flows, AIAG-compliant PPAP documentation support, and IMDS/CAMDS listing - all detailed in the "Automotive Grade" section (p.1). Its 100 kV/µs transient immunity and reinforced insulation make it suitable for battery management and inverter control in BEVs/PHEVs.
What is the function of the DNC/VREGB pin on SI88222ED-ASR?
The DNC/VREGB pin on SI88222ED-ASR is designated as "Do Not Connect" when the isolated DC-DC output voltage is ≤5.5 V - which applies to standard 3.3 V or 5.0 V configurations. As clarified in Table 1 (p.6), this pin contains an internal Zener and is intended only as a voltage reference for external regulators when output exceeds 5.5 V. For SI88222ED-ASR's typical low-voltage operation, it must remain unconnected to avoid malfunction.
