Product details
Overview
SI8922AD-IS4 from Skyworks Solutions is a galvanically isolated single-ended analog amplifier optimized for high-accuracy current shunt measurement in high-noise, high-dV/dt environments. It features ±250 mV full-scale input range, 8.2× fixed gain, 1 µs signal delay, and 75 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity. It operates from –40 °C to +125 °C and delivers stable performance in motor drive phase-current sensing.
For engineers reviewing the SI8922AD-IS4 datasheet, SI8922AD-IS4 pinout, SI8922AD-IS4 application, or SI8922AD-IS4 equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, validated pin-level circuit roles, confirmed safety-rated isolation specs (UL 5000 VRMS, VDE 2121 Vpeak reinforced), and real-world design meaning for current-sensing accuracy, fail-safe output behavior, and thermal derating in industrial inverters.
Technical Context
The SI8922AD-IS4 uses Skyworks' proprietary CMOS-based digital isolation barrier to transmit a pulse-width modulated representation of the analog input across the isolation boundary, then reconstructs it as a precise single-ended analog output. Its input stage accepts differential signals up to ±250 mV with ±0.35 mV typical offset and 0.5 µV/°C drift, while its output swings 0–2.6 V with 2.8 V fail-safe high state when VDDA is lost.
This architecture enables 600 kHz bandwidth, –85 dB THD at 1 kHz, and 82 dB SNR (at 100 kHz BW) - all while maintaining 75 kV/µs CMTI and AEC-Q100 qualification readiness. The device requires separate 3.0–5.5 V supplies on both sides and supports MSL2A moisture sensitivity handling per J-STD-020.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Range | ±250 mV full-scale differential - matches higher-value shunt resistors for improved SNR in low-current motor phases |
| Gain | 8.2× fixed - produces 0–2.6 V output swing from ±250 mV input, compatible with 3.3 V ADC reference rails |
| Signal Delay | 1 µs - enables fast overcurrent detection and closed-loop response in <10 µs protection windows |
| CMTI | 75 kV/µs - rejects high-speed switching noise in IGBT/SiC inverter legs without measurement corruption |
| Isolation Rating | 5000 VRMS (UL), 2121 Vpeak (VDE) reinforced insulation - meets IEC 62368-1 and 60601-1 2-MOPP requirements |
| Fail-Safe Output | ~2.8 V when VDDA fails - distinguishable from normal 2.6 V max, enabling unambiguous fault flagging in safety-critical systems |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +125 °C - supports placement near power stages in HEV traction inverters and industrial drives |
Pinout & Package
SI8922AD-IS4 is housed in an 8-pin narrow-body SOIC package (NB SOIC-8) with creepage/clearance ≥4.0 mm and reinforced insulation certification. Pin 5 and Pin 6 are both GNDB terminals and must be connected to output-side ground.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDA | Input-side supply | 3.0–5.5 V power for analog input and isolation transmitter; loss triggers fail-safe mode |
| AIP / AIN | Differential analog inputs | Accept ±250 mV shunt voltage; require Kelvin routing to minimize trace resistance error |
| GNDA | Input-side ground | Reference node for AIP/AIN; must connect directly to shunt resistor low side |
| GNDB1 / GNDB | Output-side ground (dual pins) | Both Pin 5 and Pin 6 serve as low-impedance return for AO and VDDB; mandatory parallel connection |
| AO | Single-ended analog output | 0–2.6 V output referenced to GNDB; 2.8 V fail-safe high state when VDDA absent |
| VDDB | Output-side supply | 3.0–5.5 V power for isolation receiver and output driver; independent of VDDA |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-input-offset drift | 0.5 µV/°C - maintains sub-0.1% gain error over full –40 °C to +125 °C range without calibration |
| High SNR at 100 kHz BW | 82 dB (Si8921B/Si8922B) - resolves <100 µA changes in 1 mΩ shunts at 10 kHz fundamental frequencies |
| Reinforced insulation | UL 5000 VRMS, VDE 2121 Vpeak - eliminates need for external isolation components in medical and industrial safety designs |
| Fail-safe output logic | 2.8 V high-state on VDDA loss - enables direct connection to microcontroller GPIO for immediate fault interrupt without external comparators |
| MSL2A rating | Moisture Sensitivity Level 2A at 260 °C - allows standard reflow without baking, reducing manufacturing overhead |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | HEV/EV Onboard Chargers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar isolated current-sensing amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AMC1301DWV | Differential output only; no single-ended option; 100 kV/µs CMTI; ±250 mV input; 8.2× gain | Requires differential-input ADC; lacks 2.8 V fail-safe output; higher CMTI suits SiC gate drivers | Choose AMC1301DWV when differential signaling and ultra-high CMTI outweigh fail-safe needs |
| ISO224BD | Single-ended output; ±250 mV input; 8× gain; 100 kV/µs CMTI; no fail-safe output; 2.5 V output swing | No defined fail state on VDDA loss; requires external biasing for 2.8 V flag; lower SNR (76 dB) | Choose ISO224BD when maximum CMTI is critical and system-level fault detection is already implemented |
Compared with SI8922AD-IS4, AMC1301DWV offers superior transient immunity but demands differential signal chain redesign, while ISO224BD trades fail-safe capability for marginally higher CMTI - making SI8922AD-IS4 optimal where deterministic fault signaling and NB SOIC-8 footprint are required.

FAQ
What is the exact input voltage range and gain configuration of the SI8922AD-IS4?
The SI8922AD-IS4 is the Si8922B variant with a ±250 mV full-scale differential input range and fixed 8.2× gain. This yields a 0–2.6 V single-ended output swing referenced to GNDB. Input common-mode voltage must stay between –0.2 V and +1.0 V relative to GNDA, and the device supports ±310 mV maximum input before clipping.
Does the SI8922AD-IS4 provide fail-safe behavior, and how does it manifest?
Yes, the SI8922AD-IS4 implements hardware-level fail-safe operation: when VDDA is removed, the AO output transitions to a nominal 2.8 V high state - clearly distinguishable from its normal 0–2.6 V operating range. This occurs within 250 µs and persists until VDDA is restored, enabling immediate system-level fault recognition without software polling.
What safety certifications apply to the SI8922AD-IS4, and what do they cover?
The SI8922AD-IS4 carries UL 1577 (5000 VRMS isolation), VDE 60747-17 (2121 Vpeak reinforced), CSA 62368-1 (600 VRMS working voltage), and CQC GB4943.1 certifications. These validate its reinforced insulation barrier for use in medical (2-MOPP), industrial, and EV applications - covering dielectric strength, creepage/clearance, and long-term TDDB reliability.
How does the SI8922AD-IS4 handle high dv/dt noise, and what is its CMTI rating?
The SI8922AD-IS4 achieves 75 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) via Skyworks' proprietary CMOS isolation barrier and balanced input architecture. This allows accurate current measurement even during 100+ V/ns switching events in SiC/IGBT half-bridges, with output error <100 mV for transients lasting ≥1 µs - verified per IEC 60747-17 test methods.
What is the package type and moisture sensitivity level of the SI8922AD-IS4?
The SI8922AD-IS4 uses an 8-pin narrow-body SOIC (NB SOIC-8) package with ≥4.0 mm creepage/clearance and is rated MSL2A per J-STD-020. This permits floor life of 4 weeks at ≤30 °C/60% RH after seal opening and supports standard lead-free reflow without pre-bake - simplifying SMT integration in high-volume manufacturing.
