Si861x/2x Data Sheet
Low-Power Single and Dual-Channel Digital Isolators
KEY FEATURES
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.
Data rates up to 150 Mbps are supported, and all devices achieve propagation delays of
less than 10 ns. Ordering options include a choice of isolation ratings (2.5, 3.75 and 5
kV) and a selectable fail-safe operating mode to control the default output state during
power loss. All products are safety certified by UL, CSA, VDE, and CQC, and products
in wide-body packages support reinforced insulation withstanding up to 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.

Automotive Grade OPNs
Automotive-grade devices are built using automotive-specific flows at all steps in the manufacturing process to ensure robustness and
low defectivity. These devices are supported with AIAG-compliant Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) documentation, and fea-
ture International Material Data System (IMDS) and China Automotive Material Data System (CAMDS) listing. Qualifications are compli-
ant with AEC-Q100, and a zero-defect methodology is maintained throughout definition, design, evaluation, qualification, and mass pro-
duction steps.

Note:
1. All packages are RoHS-compliant with peak reflow temperatures of 260 °C according to the JEDEC industry standard classifica-
tions.
2. “Si” and “SI” are used interchangeably.
3. An "R" at the end of the part number denotes tape and reel packaging option.
4. Automotive-Grade devices (with an "–A" suffix) are identical in construction materials, topside marking, and electrical parameters
to their Industrial-Grade (with a "–I" suffix) version counterparts. Automotive-Grade products are produced utilizing full automotive
process flows and additional statistical process controls throughout the manufacturing flow. The Automotive-Grade part number is
included on shipping labels.
5. Additional Ordering Part Numbers may be available in Automotive-Grade. Please contact your local Silicon Labs sales represen-
tative for further information.
