NOVOSENSE · Digital Isolators · SOIC-8

NSI8121N1 from NOVOSENSE, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VDD1 power_in Power supply for isolator side 1, operating from 2.5 V to 5.5 V per the electrical characteristics, with absolute maximum rating of -0.5 V to 6.5 V.
2 OUTA output Logic output A on isolator side 1 side of the channel; output source/sink current is limited to 15 mA absolute maximum, with typical output impedance of about 50 Ω ±40%.
3 INB input Logic input B; input voltage must stay between -0.4 V and VDD+0.4 V (absolute maximum), with VIH of 2 V minimum and VIL of 0.8 V maximum.
4 GND1 power_in Ground 1, the ground reference for isolator side 1.
5 GND2 power_in Ground 2, the ground reference for isolator side 2.
6 OUTB output Logic output B; output current is limited to 15 mA absolute maximum, with typical output impedance of about 50 Ω ±40%.
7 INA input Logic input A; input voltage must stay between -0.4 V and VDD+0.4 V (absolute maximum), with VIH of 2 V minimum and VIL of 0.8 V maximum.
8 VDD2 power_in Power supply for isolator side 2, operating from 2.5 V to 5.5 V per the electrical characteristics, with absolute maximum rating of -0.5 V to 6.5 V.
