SI8642EC-B-IS1

SILICON LABS · Digital Isolators · SOIC-16

SI8642EC-B-IS1 from SILICON LABS, in a SOIC-16. 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 Side 1 power supply, operating range 2.5-5.5 V, requiring a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor to GND1.
2 GND1 power_in Side 1 ground; on narrow-body devices pin 2 must be externally connected to ground.
3 A1 input Side 1 digital input.
4 A2 input Side 1 digital input.
5 A3 bidirectional Side 1 digital input or output (direction depends on the Si864x variant).
6 A4 bidirectional Side 1 digital input or output (direction depends on the Si864x variant).
7 EN1 input Side 1 active-high enable (EN1/NC pin; it is an NC only on Si8640/45); can be tied high or left floating to enable.
8 GND1 power_in Side 1 ground; on narrow-body devices pin 8 must be externally connected to ground.
9 GND2 power_in Side 2 ground; on narrow-body devices pin 9 must be externally connected to ground.
10 EN2 input Side 2 active-high enable (EN2/NC pin; it is an NC only on Si8645); output goes Hi-Z when low.
11 B4 bidirectional Side 2 digital input or output (direction depends on the Si864x variant).
12 B3 bidirectional Side 2 digital input or output (direction depends on the Si864x variant).
13 B2 output Side 2 digital output.
14 B1 output Side 2 digital output.
15 GND2 power_in Side 2 ground; on narrow-body devices pin 15 must be externally connected to ground.
16 VDD2 power_in Side 2 power supply, operating range 2.5-5.5 V, requiring a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor to GND2.
