Product details
Overview
ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 from Analog Devices is an 8-channel bidirectional logic level translator operating from 1.15 V to 5.5 V supply range, supporting A-side (VCCA) and Y-side (VCCY) voltage domains with VCCA < VCCY constraint. It delivers up to 60 Mbps data rate (A→Y), <1 μA quiescent current, and enables seamless interface between low-voltage DSPs and higher-voltage peripherals in portable communications.
For engineers reviewing the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 datasheet, ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 pinout, ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 application, or ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 equivalent, this device addresses multivoltage I/O bridging where direction control pins are undesirable, high-speed timing skew matters, and ultra-low power in three-state mode is critical for battery-powered designs.
Technical Context
The ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 implements a one-shot accelerator architecture per channel, using PMOS/NMOS transistor pairs triggered by edge detection to achieve fast rise/fall times (as low as 1 ns) without external direction control. Its dual-supply design isolates A-side (1.15–5.5 V) and Y-side (1.65–5.5 V) logic domains while maintaining bidirectional signal flow.
Enable (EN) is referenced to VCCA for this WLCSP variant, placing both A- and Y-side I/O into high-impedance state when low-reducing ICCA/ICCY to ≤1 μA. Propagation delay varies with voltage pairing: 7–10 ns (A→Y, 2.5 V→3.3 V), 5–9 ns (Y→A, 1.15–1.3 V→3.3 V), and channel-to-channel skew remains ≤4 ns across all configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Voltage Range | VCCA: 1.15 V to 5.5 V; VCCY: 1.65 V to 5.5 V; VCCA must be less than VCCY for correct operation |
| Max Data Rate | 60 Mbps (A→Y, 2.5 V→3.3 V); 40 Mbps (A→Y, 1.15–1.3 V→3.3 V); supports high-speed serial interfaces |
| Propagation Delay | tP,A→Y = 7–10 ns (2.5 V→3.3 V); tP,Y→A = 5–8 ns (same condition); ensures tight timing alignment in synchronous buses |
| Quiescent Current | ICCA = 0.17–1 μA; ICCY = 0.27–1 μA; enables ultra-low-power standby in portable systems |
| Channel Skew | tSKEW,A→Y ≤ 2 ns; tSKEW,Y→A ≤ 2 ns; minimizes inter-channel timing mismatch in parallel data paths |
| Enable Reference | EN pin referenced to VCCA (WLCSP variant); simplifies control logic when A-side is the system's primary low-voltage domain |
| Package | 20-ball WLCSP (2.5 mm × 2.5 mm, 0.4 mm pitch); suitable for space-constrained mobile PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 uses a 20-ball Wafer-Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP) with 0.4 mm ball pitch and 2.5 mm × 2.5 mm footprint. The exposed pad is not electrically connected and may be left floating or tied to GND-never to VCCA or VCCY.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A8 | Bidirectional I/O (A-side) | Reference to VCCA; accept and drive VCCA-compatible logic levels; require no direction control |
| Y1–Y8 | Bidirectional I/O (Y-side) | Reference to VCCY; translate A-side signals to VCCY levels and vice versa |
| VCCA | A-side power supply | Defines logic thresholds on A pins; must be ≤ VCCY; min 1.15 V enables 1.2 V system interfacing |
| VCCY | Y-side power supply | Defines logic thresholds on Y pins; min 1.65 V supports 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V domains |
| EN | Active-high enable | Referenced to VCCA; drives both A and Y sides into high-Z when low; reduces supply current to ≤1 μA |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for both supplies; required for proper biasing of internal level-shifting circuitry |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No direction pin required | Enables true bidirectional translation without external control lines-reduces PCB routing complexity and firmware overhead |
| One-shot accelerator architecture | Delivers sub-3.5 ns rise/fall times via edge-triggered PMOS/NMOS switching-critical for clean signal integrity at >40 Mbps |
| VCCA-referenced EN pin | Eliminates need for level-shifted enable signal when VCCA is the system's lowest voltage rail-simplifies power sequencing |
| Ultra-low leakage in high-Z mode | ±1 μA max leakage on A/Y pins when EN = 0-preserves battery life and prevents unintended signal coupling in sleep states |
| Guaranteed operation over −40°C to +85°C | Validated across full industrial temperature range-suitable for automotive infotainment and ruggedized portable equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional level translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0108E | 8-channel, VCCA/VCCB range 1.2–3.6 V; EN referenced to VCCA; max 60 Mbps; 20-pin VQFN package | Lower VCCY ceiling (3.6 V vs. 5.5 V); lacks guaranteed operation down to 1.15 V on A-side | Prefer TXS0108E when interfacing only up to 3.3 V domains and board space allows VQFN; ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 preferred for 5 V Y-side or 1.2 V A-side operation. |
| SN74AVC8T245 | 8-bit, dual-supply translator with direction pin; VCCA/VCCB = 1.2–3.6 V; 24 mA drive strength; 24-pin TSSOP | Requires direction control; higher drive capability but larger footprint and no WLCSP option | Choose SN74AVC8T245 when driving heavy capacitive loads (>30 pF) or needing push-pull output strength; ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 better for minimal pin count and ultra-low power. |
Compared with TXS0108E and SN74AVC8T245, ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 uniquely supports 1.15 V A-side operation and 5.5 V Y-side rails while delivering sub-μA quiescent current in three-state mode-making it optimal for next-generation ultra-low-power, multi-rail portable systems where board area and battery life are constrained.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCCA voltage supported by the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7?
The ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 supports VCCA as low as 1.15 V, enabling direct interfacing with 1.2 V logic families such as LPDDR2 I/O and ultra-low-power microcontrollers. This specification is guaranteed over the full −40°C to +85°C temperature range and is validated per the Rev. E datasheet Table 1.
How does the EN pin function on the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7?
On the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7, the EN pin is referenced to VCCA-not VCCY-so it must be driven with VCCA-compatible logic levels. When pulled low, both A-side and Y-side I/O pins enter high-impedance state, reducing ICCA and ICCY to ≤1 μA. This behavior is specific to the WLCSP variant (ADG3308-1).
Can the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 translate signals from 5 V to 1.2 V?
Yes-the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 supports Y→A translation from 5 V (VCCY) to 1.2 V (VCCA), with typical propagation delay of 14–35 ns and maximum data rate of 25 Mbps under those conditions. Input high/low thresholds on the Y side scale with VCCY (VIHY = 0.65×VCCY), ensuring reliable recognition of 5 V TTL signals.
What is the thermal performance of the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 in its WLCSP package?
The ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 in 20-ball WLCSP has a θJA thermal impedance of 100°C/W, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value assumes standard JEDEC JESD51-7 PCB mounting; actual junction temperature rise depends on copper area, airflow, and power dissipation-max ICCA + ICCY is <2 μA in active mode, limiting self-heating.
Is the ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 pin-compatible with other variants in the ADG3308 family?
No-ADG3308BCBZ-1-RL7 (WLCSP) is not pin-compatible with ADG3308BCPZ-REEL7 (LFCSP) or ADG3308BRUZ-REEL7 (TSSOP). While all share identical signal functionality and ball/pin numbering, the WLCSP uses bottom-side solder balls versus top-side leads, requiring distinct PCB footprints and assembly processes.
