Digital Isolators
Silicon Lab's family of ultra-low-power digital isolators are CMOS devices offering sub-
stantial data rate, propagation delay, power, size, reliability, and external BOM advan-
tages over legacy isolation technologies. The operating parameters of these products
remain stable across wide temperature ranges and throughout device service life for
ease of design and highly uniform performance. All device versions have Schmitt trigger
inputs for high noise immunity and only require VDD bypass capacitors.
All products support Data rates up to 1 Mbps and Enable inputs which provide a single
point control for enabling and disabling output drive. All products are safety certified by
UL, CSA, VDE, and CQC and support withstand ratings up to 2.5 kV
RMS
.
Automotive Grade is available for certain part numbers. These products are built using
automotive-specific flows at all steps in the manufacturing process to ensure the robust-
ness and low defectivity required for automotive applications.

Si86xx Data Sheet
Functional Description
2. Functional Description
2.1 Theory of Operation
The operation of an Si86xx channel is analogous to that of an opto coupler, except an RF carrier is modulated instead of light. This
simple architecture provides a robust isolated data path and requires no special considerations or initialization at start-up. A simplified
block diagram for a single Si86xx channel is shown in the figure below.

Based Isolation

DEMODULATOR
B
Figure 2.1. Simplified Channel Diagram
A channel consists of an RF Transmitter and RF Receiver separated by a semiconductor-based isolation barrier. Referring to the
Transmitter, input A modulates the carrier provided by an RF oscillator using on/off keying. The Receiver contains a demodulator that
decodes the input state according to its RF energy content and applies the result to output B via the output driver. This RF on/off keying
scheme is superior to pulse code schemes as it provides best-in-class noise immunity, low power consumption, and better immunity to
magnetic fields. See the figure below for more details.
