Getting Started

When designing with the SI823H1AD-IS3, ensure high-frequency decoupling capacitors are placed as close as possible to the VDD pins to manage peak currents up to 6A. Refer to the Skyworks Si823H evaluation kits to characterize switching performance and propagation delay in your specific PCB layout. Ensure the input signal levels remain within the 3V to 5.5V range for reliable CMOS/TTL logic interfacing.
