Isolators are crucial components of electrical systems, providing insulation between circuits which can help prevent interference and ensure long-term system stability. The SI8271GB-IS from Silicon Labs is an isolator designed to serve as a gate driver for a power MOSFET. It is a digital isolator suitable for a variety of applications in which signal and power integrity must remain isolated.

Applications

The SI8271GB-IS is designed to provide power isolation for a variety of applications. It can be used as part of safety circuits to provide isolation in systems with stringent safety requirements. It can also be used to isolate power and signal lines in order to minimize interference or protect power circuits from short circuits. The device is ideal for switch-mode power supplies, as well as coupling and level shifting applications.

The SI8271GB-IS can also be used in a variety of automotive applications. It is suitable for switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) in body electronics, as well as for powertrain systems, and can provide the isolation necessary to comply with automotive EMC requirements.

Functionality

The SI8271GB-IS digital isolator consists of a CMOS driver and a new silicon magnetic process-isolator. The driver is a low-power MOSFET gate driver that can provide up to 5A of peak output current to drive the power MOSFETs. The isolator provides 4000 V RMS of isolation voltage, allowing it to be used in high-voltage applications. The device also provides fast switching times of up to 2 MHz, allowing it to be used in frequency-agile applications.

The SI8271GB-IS offers two selectable operating modes: digital or analog. In the digital mode, the device is controlled by an external TTL/CMOS logic signal, while in the analog mode the device is controlled by an external analog voltage source. The digital/analog input selector switch can be used to change between the two operating modes.

The device offers ESD protection of up to 8 kV for both sides of the isolation barrier, allowing it to survive harsh environments without suffering permanent damage.
