Voltage-level translators address the
challenges posed by simultaneous use of different supply-voltage levels on the same
circuit board. This 4-bit non-inverting translator uses two separate configurable
power-supply rails. The A port is designed to track VCCA. VCCA accepts
any supply voltage from 1.2V to 3.6V. The B port is designed to track
VCCB. VCCB accepts any supply voltage from 1.65V to 5.5V. This allows
for universal low-voltage bidirectional translation between any of the 1.2V, 1.5V,
1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V voltage nodes. VCCA should not exceed
VCCB.
When the output-enable (OE) input is
low, all outputs are placed in the high-impedance state. To establish high-impedance
state during power up or power down, OE should be tied to GND through a pulldown
resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sourcing
capability of the driver.
The TXB0104 is designed so that the OE
input circuit is supplied by VCCA.
This device is fully specified for
partial-power-down applications using Ioff. The Ioff circuitry
disables the outputs, preventing damaging current backflow through the device when
it is powered down.
