Description
The Si86SLxx-EVB evaluation board allows designers to
evaluate Skyworks family of CMOS ultra-low-power
isolators, specifically the low-power mode and sleep
mode offerings. These isolators are CMOS devices
employing RF coupler technology to transmit digital
information across an isolation barrier. These products
are based on Skyworks' proprietary RF isolation 
technology, with up to 6.0 kVrms isolation rating. 
They offer shorter propagation delays, lower power
consumption, improved noise immunity, less PCB area,
and more stable operation with temperature and age
versus optocouplers.
These devices include up to six isolated channels in
various forward and reverse configurations, permitting
bidirectional data transmission up to 150 Mbps.
For the sleep mode devices, an external pin can shut
down the active circuits to greatly reduce quiescent
current. For more information, refer to the respective
family data sheets.
