Product details
Overview
GTL2010PW,118 from NXP Semiconductors is a 10-bit bidirectional NMOS pass-transistor voltage translator enabling seamless level shifting between 1.0 V and 5.0 V buses without direction control. It features 6.5 Ω typical ON-state resistance, sub-5.5 ns propagation delay, and supports I²C-bus translation from 1.0–1.8 V processors to 3.3 V/5.0 V peripherals in embedded computing and server memory subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the GTL2010PW,118 datasheet, GTL2010PW,118 pinout, GTL2010PW,118 application, or GTL2010PW,118 equivalent, this device delivers verified bidirectional clamping operation, ESD-hardened (2000 V HBM) I/O, flow-through TSSOP24 layout, and no external power supply requirement - critical for low-voltage processor interface design and hot-insertion systems.
Technical Context
The GTL2010PW,118 implements Gunning Transceiver Logic (GTL)-TVC architecture using matched NMOS pass transistors with a common gate reference (GREF) and dedicated reference transistor (SREF/DREF). Its operation relies on voltage-controlled clamping: when Dn is HIGH, Sn is limited to SREF voltage; when Sn is LOW, Dn follows via low-Ron conduction.
It requires GREF ≥ SREF + 1.5 V for optimal performance and supports both bidirectional and unidirectional configurations. All 10 Sn/Dn channels share identical electrical characteristics, enabling consistent voltage translation across ports and eliminating inter-channel skew in timing-critical applications like multi-bit I²C or GTL+ bus interfacing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Channel count | 10 independent bidirectional Sn/Dn pairs for parallel voltage translation |
| ON-state resistance (Ron) | 6.5 Ω typical at VGREF = 4.5 V, IO = 64 mA - ensures minimal voltage drop and signal integrity |
| Propagation delay | 1.5 ns typical tPLH/tPHL - enables high-speed interface bridging up to ~200 MHz effective data rate |
| Voltage translation range | 1.0 V ↔ 5.0 V bidirectional - supports direct GTL/GTL+/LVTTL/TTL/CMOS level interfacing |
| ESD protection | 2000 V HBM per JESD22-A114 - protects downstream 1.0–1.8 V logic from system-level ESD events |
| Operating temperature | −40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial and commercial embedded environments |
| Supply requirement | No VCC required - operates passively using only reference and signal voltages |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP24 package (SOT355-1), 4.4 mm body width, 0.65 mm pitch, 24-lead plastic thin shrink small outline format with flow-through pin arrangement optimized for PCB trace routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Pin 1 - mandatory connection to system ground for proper biasing and ESD path |
| SREF | Reference source terminal | Pin 2 - sets clamp voltage (VT = VSREF) for all Sn outputs during HIGH-to-LOW translation |
| S1–S10 | Low-voltage side source ports | Pins 3–12 - connect to 1.0–1.8 V processor I/O; output voltage clamped to SREF |
| D1–D10 | High-voltage side drain ports | Pins 13–22 - connect to 3.3 V/5.0 V peripherals; pulled to VCC via external resistors |
| DREF | Reference drain terminal | Pin 23 - tied to higher-side VCC (3.3–5.5 V) through 200 kΩ pull-up for stable gate bias |
| GREF | Common gate control | Pin 24 - must be connected to DREF; controls ON/OFF state of all 10 pass transistors |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional translation without direction pin | Eliminates control logic overhead and PCB routing complexity in I²C and GTL+ bus bridges |
| Matched transistor array | All 10 Sn/Dn channels fabricated identically - guarantees ≤5.5 ns max propagation skew and uniform Ron across channels |
| Hot-insertion support | No latch-up risk and zero power supply requirement enable safe live insertion into powered backplanes or modular systems |
| 5 V tolerant inputs | Sn/Dn pins withstand up to 7.0 V per absolute maximum rating - compatible with mixed-voltage board designs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional voltage translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AVC16T245DGGR | 16-bit, active dual-supply (VCCA/VCCB), 3.6 V max VCC, requires direction control | Needs external DIR signal and two supply rails - unsuitable for passive/no-power designs | Select when higher channel count and active drive strength are required; not drop-in for GTL2010PW,118's passive clamping topology |
| TXS0108EPRJR | 8-bit, auto-direction sensing, 5.5 V tolerant, 1.65–5.5 V I/O range, no GREF/SREF configuration | Relies on internal sensing circuitry - adds 10–15 ns latency and limits use in ultra-low-latency GTL+ paths | Prefer for simple I²C/SPI translation where direction detection suffices; avoid where deterministic sub-5 ns delay and matched Ron are mandatory |
Compared with SN74AVC16T245DGGR and TXS0108EPRJR, GTL2010PW,118 uniquely provides passive, no-VCC, directionless translation with matched 10-channel Ron and <5.5 ns delay - making it irreplaceable in GTL+, high-speed I²C, and hot-swap-critical applications requiring guaranteed timing predictability.

FAQ
Does GTL2010PW,118 require an external power supply to operate?
No, GTL2010PW,118 operates passively without any VCC connection. It uses only the reference voltage (VSREF) and signal-side voltages to establish clamping thresholds and conductive paths. This eliminates power rail dependencies and makes GTL2010PW,118 ideal for systems where supply noise or sequencing constraints preclude active translators.
What is the maximum recommended current per channel for GTL2010PW,118?
The absolute maximum clamp current per channel is ±128 mA, but the recommended operating limit is 64 mA per channel under typical conditions. At 64 mA and VGREF = 4.5 V, GTL2010PW,118 maintains Ron ≤5 Ω, ensuring VOL ≤350 mV and preserving signal integrity in high-speed interfaces.
Can GTL2010PW,118 be used for unidirectional translation only?
Yes, GTL2010PW,118 supports unidirectional HIGH-to-LOW and LOW-to-HIGH translation by configuring GREF/DREF and SREF appropriately. For down-translation, tie GREF/DREF to higher-side VCC and SREF to lower-core voltage; for up-translation, add external pull-ups on the higher-voltage side since GTL2010PW,118 does not actively drive HIGH levels.
How does GTL2010PW,118 handle ESD protection on its I/O pins?
GTL2010PW,118 exceeds JESD22-A114 (2000 V HBM), JESD22-A115 (200 V MM), and JESD22-C101 (1000 V CDM) ESD standards. Its integrated NMOS structure provides inherent clamping to GND and VCC rails, protecting sensitive 1.0–1.8 V processor I/Os from system-level ESD events without requiring external TVS diodes.
Is GTL2010PW,118 pin-compatible with other packages in the GTL2010 family?
GTL2010PW,118 uses the TSSOP24 (SOT355-1) package and shares identical pin functions with the HVQFN24 variant (GTL2010BS), though physical pin locations differ. No PCB redesign is needed when migrating between packages if thermal and layout constraints permit - both implement the same 24-pin functional mapping per Table 3 of the datasheet.
