Si8285/86 Data Sheet
ISODrivers with System Safety Features
KEY FEATURES
The Si828x (Si8285 and Si8286) are isolated, high current gate drivers with integrated
system safety and feedback function. The devices are ideal for driving power MOSFETs
and IGBTs used in a wide variety of inverter and motor control applications. The Si8285
and Si8286 isolated gate drivers utilize Silicon Labs' proprietary silicon isolation technol-
ogy, supporting up to 5.0 kVrms withstand voltage per UL1577. This technology enables
higher-performance, reduced variation with temperature and age, tighter part-to-part
matching, and superior common-mode rejection compared to other isolated gate driver
technologies.
The input to the device is a complementary digital input that can be utilized in several
configurations. The input side of the isolation also has several control and feedback digi-
tal signals. The controller to the device receives information about the driver side power
state (Si8285) and fault state of the device and recovers the device from fault through an
active-low reset pin.
On the output side, the Si8285 provides separate pull-up and pull-down pins for the gate.
The Si8286 has a single pin for both functions. A dedicated DSAT pin detects the desa-
turation condition and immediately shuts down the driver in a controlled manner. The
Si8285 device also integrates a Miller clamp to facilitate a strong turn-off of the power
switch.
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.

Si8285/86 Data Sheet
System Overview
2. System Overview
2.1 Isolation Channel Description
The operation of a Si8285 or Si8286 channel is analogous to that of an optocoupler and gate driver, 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 Si828x channel is shown in the figure below.

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.
