Product details
Overview
SI88320BC-ISR from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel digital isolator with integrated isolated DC-DC converter, delivering up to 2 W of regulated 3.3 V or 5.0 V output power across 5 kVRMS isolation. It features two unidirectional CMOS isolation channels (A1/A2 → B1/B2), 100 Mbps data rate, 23 ns max propagation delay, and operates from –40 °C to +125 °C. It is used in industrial motor control systems requiring galvanic separation of gate drivers and feedback signals.
For engineers reviewing the SI88320BC-ISR datasheet, SI88320BC-ISR pinout, SI88320BC-ISR application, or SI88320BC-ISR equivalent, this page provides verified functional specifications, SOIC-20 wide-body package details, confirmed automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification, and validated alternative options for isolated power + signal transfer in high-noise environments.
Technical Context
The SI88320BC-ISR implements RF-based on/off keying modulation across a silicon dioxide capacitive barrier for robust noise immunity and zero initialization latency. Its digital channels operate as transparent CMOS buffers with independent UVLO monitoring on both sides (VDDA and VDDB).
The integrated DC-DC controller uses peak-current-mode flyback topology with internal primary-side switches (VSW), external frequency/soft-start control via SH_FC and SS pins, and secondary-side voltage sensing through VSNS. Loop compensation is implemented externally at COMP with RCOMP = 49.9 kΩ and CCOMP.

Pinout & Package
SI88320BC-ISR is housed in a RoHS-compliant SOIC-20 wide-body package (10.3 mm × 7.5 mm, 1.27 mm pitch) with reinforced creepage/clearance for 5 kVRMS isolation. Pin 1 marked with dot; isolation barrier separates pins 1–10 (primary side) from pins 11–20 (secondary side).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 GNDP | Primary-side power ground | Reference for VDDP and internal switch driver; must be low-inductance connected to VDDP bypass capacitor |
| 2 VSW | Internal power switch output | Drives transformer primary; rated for ≤5.5 V operation; requires snubber for EMI suppression |
| 3 VDDP | Primary-side power supply | Input for DC-DC controller (3.0–5.5 V); powers internal oscillator and logic |
| 4 VDDA | Primary-side signal supply | Powers A1/A2 input receivers; independent of VDDP; monitored by UVLO |
| 5 GNDA | Primary-side signal ground | Reference for A1/A2 inputs; must be tied directly to GNDP with minimal trace length |
| 7 A1 | Forward channel input | Unidirectional digital input (A→B); CMOS-compatible; 0–100 Mbps |
| 8 A2 | Forward channel input | Second unidirectional digital input (A→B); independent timing and fail-safe behavior |
| 11 GNDB | Secondary-side signal ground | Reference for B1/B2 outputs; isolated from GNDA; critical for noise rejection |
| 12 VDDB | Secondary-side signal supply | Powered by internal DC-DC; supplies B1/B2 output drivers; 3.3 V or 5.0 V regulated |
| 13 B1 | Forward channel output | Isolated CMOS output (A→B); matches A1 state with 23 ns max delay |
| 14 B2 | Forward channel output | Isolated CMOS output (A→B); matches A2 state; independent from B1 |
| 15 VSNS | Feedback sense input | Connects to resistor divider on secondary side; sets VDDB output voltage (e.g., 3.3 V or 5.0 V) |
| 16 COMP | Compensation node | External RC network (49.9 kΩ + CCOMP) stabilizes DC-DC control loop |
| 17 SH_FC | Shutdown/frequency control | High-level assertion disables DC-DC; RC time constant sets switching frequency (200–800 kHz) |
| 18 SS | Soft-start control | Capacitor to ground programs startup ramp time; prevents inrush current into VDDB load |

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by SI88320BC-ISR?
The SI88320BC-ISR supports a maximum data rate of 100 Mbps across both isolation channels. This is achieved using RF on/off keying modulation with a silicon dioxide capacitive barrier, enabling high-speed SPI, UART, and PWM signal transfer without timing skew or initialization delay. The 100 Mbps rating is specified over the full –40 °C to +125 °C temperature range and 5 kVRMS isolation barrier.
Does SI88320BC-ISR require external components to operate its DC-DC converter?
Yes, the SI88320BC-ISR requires external passive components to operate its integrated DC-DC converter: a miniature transformer (e.g., Coilcraft TA7618-AL), input/output capacitors (C2, C3), feedback resistors (R1/R2), and a compensation network (RCOMP = 49.9 kΩ + CCOMP) at the COMP pin. No external MOSFET or controller IC is needed - VSW drives the transformer primary directly for 3–5.5 V input operation.
How is the output voltage of the SI88320BC-ISR DC-DC converter set?
The output voltage of the SI88320BC-ISR DC-DC converter is set by an external resistor divider (R1/R2) connected to the VSNS pin on the secondary side. The internal error amplifier compares the divided voltage to a 1.22 V reference; typical configurations yield 3.3 V (R1 = 100 kΩ, R2 = 56.2 kΩ) or 5.0 V (R1 = 158 kΩ, R2 = 56.2 kΩ). This secondary-side sensing eliminates optocoupler dependency and improves regulation accuracy.
Can SI88320BC-ISR be used in automotive applications?
Yes, SI88320BC-ISR is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 1, –40 °C to +125 °C) and supports automotive production requirements including AIAG-compliant PPAP documentation, IMDS/CAMDS material declarations, and HTOL reliability testing. It is deployed in EV on-board chargers, battery management systems, and ADAS power domains where reinforced isolation and thermal robustness are mandatory.
What is the purpose of the SH_FC and SS pins on SI88320BC-ISR?
The SH_FC pin serves dual functions: asserting it high shuts down the DC-DC converter, and configuring it with an external RC network sets the switching frequency between 200 kHz and 800 kHz. The SS pin accepts an external capacitor to program soft-start duration, limiting inrush current during VDDB power-up. Both features enable precise system-level power sequencing and EMI optimization not available in fixed-function alternatives like SI88321BC-ISR.
