Surface-mount only; the 0.154-inch width keeps the creepage distance tight, so the 2500Vrms isolation rating depends on maintaining the datasheet's recommended PCB slot or gap under the part. The supplier device package is listed as 16-SOIC, which is the same mechanical outline as the SOIC-16 narrow. For high-frequency switching, keep the output return path short and wide to minimise loop inductance. ## What the 4 A peak output and 150 kV/µs CMTI mean for your gate drive Rated for 4 A peak output current (1.8 A source, 4 A sink), this isolator drives the gate of a medium-power IGBT or Si MOSFET directly — think 600 V / 30 A class devices switching at 20–100 kHz. The asymmetric sink/source ratio (4 A pull-down vs 1.8 A pull-up) means the turn-off edge is faster than turn-on, which helps clamp the gate during Miller plateau events without an external pull-down resistor. Common-mode transient immunity of 150 kV/µs minimum means the output stays valid when the ground reference on the secondary side jumps at tens of kilovolts per microsecond — exactly what happens in a half-bridge when the low-side FET turns off and the switch-node voltage slews across the isolation barrier. Below this threshold, the part holds its logic state; above it, the output may glitch. For motor-drive and inverter applications, 150 kV/µs is the floor for reliable operation in a noisy environment. Propagation delay is matched at 60 ns max for both rising and falling edges, with a pulse-width distortion of just 8 ns. That symmetry matters when the isolator feeds a dead-time generator — the 8 ns skew between channels is well within the margin for a 500 ns dead-time window in a typical inverter leg. ## Temperature range and supply rail flexibility The output supply rail accepts 4.6 V to 30 V, so it can drive the gate of a standard IGBT (typically 15 V) or a logic-level MOSFET (down to 5 V) from the same secondary-side bias rail. No separate regulator needed between the bias supply and the isolator output. Rise and fall times are 10.5 ns and 13.3 ns typical respectively — fast enough to keep switching losses low in a 100 kHz converter, but the 13.3 ns fall time (sink) is the edge that determines the di/dt in the gate loop. Pair it with a gate resistor in the 5–15 Ω range to control ringing without slowing the edge below the datasheet typical. ## Active lifecycle and compliance — approvals on record The Si827x series is a current-production family, so the SI8273AB-IS1R is suitable for new designs and volume builds. Carries CQC, CSA, UR, and VDE approvals — these are the key safety agency marks for reinforced insulation in industrial equipment. The UR (UL recognition) and VDE marks cover the 2500Vrms isolation rating for basic or reinforced insulation per IEC 60950-1 / IEC 62368-1.","metaTitle":"Skyworks SI8273AB-IS1R Digital Isolator, 2.5kV, 4A Peak","metaDescription":"Skyworks SI8273AB-IS1R dual-channel RF-coupling digital isolator, 2500Vrms isolation, 4A peak gate drive, 150kV/µs CMTI, 16-SOIC.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Si827x","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Digital Isolators"],"specifications":{"Series":"Si827x","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","Technology":"RF Coupling","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Package / Case":"16-SOIC (0.154\\\", 3.90mm Width)","Approval Agency":"CQC, CSA, UR, VDE","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Number of Channels":"2","Voltage - Isolation":"2500Vrms","Current - Peak Output":"4A","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 125°C","Rise / Fall Time (Typ)":"10.5ns, 13.3ns","Supplier Device Package":"16-SOIC","Voltage - Output Supply":"4.6V ~ 30V","Current - Output High, Low":"1.8A, 4A","Pulse Width Distortion (Max)":"8ns","Propagation Delay tpLH / tpHL (Max)":"60ns, 60ns","Common Mode Transient Immunity (Min)":"150kV/µs"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$5.27","stockQuantity":15,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$5.27000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$4.73500","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$4.47680","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$3.87990","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$3.68096","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$3.30290","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$2.78558","currency":"USD"},{"qty":2500,"price":"$2.64630","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/e34d268c600f08b08b448c238613347c.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Will SI8273AB-IS1R drop into a board that was specified around SI8273AB-IS1 without rewiring?","answer":"Yes — the SI8273AB-IS1 (tube packaging) and the SI8273AB-IS1R (tape & reel) share the same die, same 16-SOIC package, same 2500Vrms isolation, same 4 A peak output, and same 60 ns propagation delay.
