Quick Sourcing Note

TXB0108 from Texas Instruments is a Signal_Chain 8-bit bidirectional voltage-level translator supplied in SON-20, BGA MICROSTAR JUNIOR-20, TSSOP-20, VQFN-20, DSGBA-20, nFBGA-20, WQFN-20, and VSSOP-20 package options. It supports bidirectional noninverting translation with auto-direction sensing, so no explicit direction pin is required. Recommended supplies are 1.2 to 3.6 V on VCCA and 1.65 to 5.5 V on VCCB, with VCCA not exceeding VCCB. Supported translation nodes include 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V. OE is referenced to VCCA, and low OE places outputs in high impedance.

Product Overview

TXB0108 is an 8-bit bidirectional noninverting voltage-level translator for Signal_Chain designs that need universal low-voltage translation across common logic nodes. The device uses auto-direction sensing for bidirectional translation without an explicit direction-control pin. Its A-port supply range is 1.2 to 3.6 V, and its B-port supply range is 1.65 to 5.5 V, with the operating requirement that VCCA must be less than or equal to VCCB.

The device supports 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V translation nodes. OE is referenced to VCCA because the OE input circuit is supplied by VCCA. When OE is low, all outputs enter high-impedance 3-state mode. The VCC isolation feature also places all outputs in high impedance if either VCC input is at GND, and Ioff circuitry supports partial-power-down behavior by preventing current backflow when powered down.

Package options include SON-20, BGA MICROSTAR JUNIOR-20, TSSOP-20, VQFN-20, DSGBA-20, nFBGA-20, WQFN-20, and VSSOP-20 footprints. Operating free-air temperature is -40 to 85 °C, storage temperature is -65 to 150 °C, and junction temperature is rated to 150 °C.

Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for TXB0108, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For analog and signal-chain sourcing, supply voltage, bandwidth, accuracy, noise level, package, temperature grade, input/output configuration and qualification requirements should be verified before approval.

FAQ

What type of translator is the TXB0108?

TXB0108 is an 8-bit bidirectional noninverting voltage-level translator from Texas Instruments. It uses auto-direction sensing, so bidirectional translation is supported without a separate direction-control pin.

What supply ranges does TXB0108 support?

The A-port supply range is 1.2 to 3.6 V, and the B-port supply range is 1.65 to 5.5 V. The operating condition requires VCCA to be less than or equal to VCCB.

What happens when OE is low on TXB0108?

The OE input is referenced to VCCA. When OE is pulled low, all outputs are placed in high-impedance 3-state mode according to the extracted datasheet facts.

Does TXB0108 support partial-power-down operation?

Yes. TXB0108 supports Ioff circuitry, which disables outputs to help prevent current backflow when the device is powered down. It also places all outputs in high impedance if either VCC input is at GND.

What package options are listed for TXB0108?

Listed package options include SON-20, BGA MICROSTAR JUNIOR-20, TSSOP-20, VQFN-20, DSGBA-20, nFBGA-20, WQFN-20, and VSSOP-20 package cases with the dimensions provided in the extracted facts.
