3 Description

The TXS0104E-Q1 device connects an incompatible

logic communication from chip-to-chip due to voltage

mismatch. This auto-direction translator can be

conveniently used to bridge the gap without the

need of direction control from the host. Each channel

can be mixed and matched with different output

types (open-drain or push-pull) and mixed data flows

(transmit or receive) without intervention from the

host. This 4-bit noninverting translator uses two

separate configurable power-supply rails. The A and

B ports are designed to track VCCA and VCCB

respectively. The VCCB pin accepts any supply voltage

from 2.3 V to 5.5 V while the VCCA pin accepts any

supply voltage from 1.65 V to 3.6 V such that VCCA

is less than or equal to VCCB. This tracking allows

for low-voltage bidirectional translation between any

of the 1.8-V, 2.5-V, 3.3-V, and 5-V voltage nodes.

When the output-enable (OE) input is low, all outputs

are placed in the high-impedance state.

The TXS0104E-Q1 device is designed so that the OE

input circuit is supplied by VCCA.

To be in the high-impedance state during power up

or power down, the OE pin must be tied to the GND

pin through a pull down resistor; the minimum value

of the resistor is determined by the current-sourcing

capability of the driver.
