TXB0108YZPR

TXB0108YZPR is an 8-bit bidirectional voltage-level translator used in digital logic applications. It is designed to facilitate communication between devices operating at different voltage levels, typically between 1.2V and 3.6V. This device allows for seamless data transfer in systems such as microcontrollers, sensors, and other integrated circuits that require logic level shifting.
The TXB0108 features eight channels, enabling parallel communication across multiple lines. Its automatic direction sensing eliminates the need for additional control signals, simplifying integration into existing circuits. The device is particularly useful in I2C, SPI, or UART communication protocols where mixed-voltage systems are common.
A key advantage is its low propagation delay and high-speed operation, making it suitable for applications requiring fast data rates. The TXB0108YZPR is packaged in a compact 20-pin TSSOP, allowing for space-efficient designs. Overall, this level translator is a versatile component for engineers working on mixed-voltage electronics projects.

The TXB0108YZPR is packaged in a TSSOP-20 (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) format. This package type is designed for space-saving applications and provides a low-profile solution for integrated circuits.

The TXB0108YZPR is an 8-bit bidirectional level shifter designed for translating signals between different voltage levels. It features a total of 16 pins.
Pin Count: 16 pins
Functions:
- VCCA (pins 1, 2): Supply voltage for the A side (lower voltage side).
- VCCB (pins 3, 4): Supply voltage for the B side (higher voltage side).
- GND (pins 5, 10): Ground connection.
- A1 to A8 (pins 6-13): Inputs/outputs for the A side (low voltage).
- B1 to B8 (pins 14-1): Inputs/outputs for the B side (high voltage).
- DIR (pin 15): Direction control pin (optional for fixed direction).
- OE (pin 16): Output enable control (optional).
The device automatically senses the direction of the data flow and facilitates level shifting between 1.2V to 5.5V on the A side and 1.65V to 5.5V on the B side, making it suitable for interface applications in mixed-voltage systems.
