Si838x Data Sheet
Bipolar Digital Field Inputs for PLCs and Industrial I/O Modules
The Si838x provides eight input channels ideal for 24 V digital logic commonly used for industrial applications. These channels can either sink or source current and feature integrated safety rated isolation. In combination with a few external components, this provides compliance to IEC 61131-2 switch types 1, 2, or 3. The input interface is based on Skyworks' ground-breaking CMOS based LED emulator technology which enables the bipolar capability (sinking or sourcing inputs) with no VDD required on the field side. The output interface from the Si838x device allows for low power operation with 2.25 V compliance. These products utilize Skyworks' proprietary CMOS-based isolation technology, supporting up to 2.
