Product details
Overview
LSF0102YZTR from Texas Instruments is a 2-channel auto-bidirectional multi-voltage level translator for open-drain and push-pull interfaces, supporting 0.95V ↔ 1.8/2.5/3.3/5V translation, ≤30pF load up to 100MHz down translation, 5V-tolerant I/O, and −40°C to 125°C operation - used in I²C, SMBus, PMBus, and MDIO signal bridging between mixed-voltage SoCs and peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the LSF0102YZTR datasheet, LSF0102YZTR pinout, LSF0102YZTR application, or LSF0102YZTR equivalent, key selection considerations include bidirectional translation without direction control, Vref_A/Vref_B voltage pairing constraints, EN biasing via 200kΩ resistor to Vref_B, and DSBGA-8 (YZT) package thermal and layout requirements.
Technical Context
The LSF0102YZTR implements a passive MOSFET-based switch architecture with no internal buffers or direction logic, enabling true auto-bidirectional translation by sensing voltage differentials across A/B ports. Its operation relies on external pull-up resistors on the high-side (B) and optional low-side (A) rails, with EN tied directly to Vref_B and biased through 200kΩ to VCCB.
Down translation occurs when the B-side drives LOW, turning ON the pass transistor to pull A-side LOW; up translation occurs when A-side is HIGH and OFF-state clamping at Vref_A allows B-side to be pulled up to VPU. Signal integrity depends critically on capacitive load (≤30pF for >100MHz), RON (8–30Ω depending on Vref pair), and proper bias circuit stability with 0.1µF decoupling on Vref_B.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Voltage Translation Range | 0.95V ↔ 1.8/2.5/3.3/5V; enables interoperability between sub-1V logic and 5V TTL without direction pin |
| Max Translation Speed | 100MHz down / >100MHz up at ≤30pF; supports high-speed MDIO and SDIO clock domains |
| On-State Resistance (RON) | 8.0Ω typical (Vref_A=3.3V, Vref_B=5V); minimizes voltage drop and signal distortion during LOW-state conduction |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 5V-tolerant inputs/outputs; ensures compatibility with legacy 5V TTL signaling in industrial telecom systems |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C; qualified for under-hood automotive, base station, and industrial embedded environments |
| Enable Control Logic | EN must be tied directly to Vref_B and pulled up to VCCB via 200kΩ; LOW disables all channels to Hi-Z |
| ESD Rating | ±2000V HBM; meets JEDEC JS-001 for robust handling in automated assembly and field service |
Pinout & Package
LSF0102YZTR uses the YZT package: 8-pin DSBGA (Die Size Ball Grid Array), 1.98mm × 0.98mm footprint, bottom-view ball layout, optimized for space-constrained portable and telecom modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1, A2 | Auto-Bidirectional Data Port (Low-Side) | Connects to lower-voltage domain (e.g., 1.8V SoC GPIO); clamped to Vref_A when inactive |
| B1, B2 | Auto-Bidirectional Data Port (High-Side) | Connects to higher-voltage domain (e.g., 3.3V/5V peripheral); requires external pull-up to VPU |
| Vref_A | Reference Supply (Low-Side) | Defines maximum output voltage on A-side; must be lowest rail in translation pair (min 0.95V) |
| Vref_B | Reference Supply (High-Side) | Sets B-side bias point; must be ≥ Vref_A + 0.8V; regulates EN and enables translation |
| EN | Enable Input | Tied directly to Vref_B; pulled up to VCCB via 200kΩ; LOW forces all I/Os into high-impedance state |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for both sides; must be low-inductance connection to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No direction pin required | Eliminates PCB routing complexity and firmware overhead for bidirectional protocols like I²C and SMBus |
| Flow-through pinout (DSBGA) | Enables straight trace routing across package; reduces crosstalk and improves signal integrity in dense layouts |
| Low standby current (6µA) | Supports always-on system monitoring paths without compromising battery life in 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0102DRYR | Buffer-based architecture with integrated direction control; higher ICC (20µA), lower speed (60MHz max) | Requires direction signal; better for unidirectional or burst-mode protocols like SPI | Choose TXS0102DRYR only if direction control is available and signal integrity demands active buffering |
| SN74AVC2T244RSWR | Two-channel dual-supply bus transceiver with separate OE and DIR pins; 3.6V max VCC, no 5V tolerance | Not suitable for 5V-tolerant systems; requires explicit direction sequencing and additional control logic | Select SN74AVC2T244RSWR when translating between two sub-3.3V domains with strict timing control needs |
Compared with TXS0102DRYR and SN74AVC2T244RSWR, LSF0102YZTR uniquely eliminates direction logic overhead and supports 5V-tolerant I/O - making it optimal for legacy-compatible, always-bidirectional interfaces like I²C and MDIO where board space and firmware simplicity are critical.

FAQ
What is the correct way to connect the EN pin on LSF0102YZTR?
The EN pin on LSF0102YZTR must be tied directly to the Vref_B pin and pulled up to the high-side supply (VCCB) using a 200kΩ resistor. This configuration ensures proper biasing of the internal pass transistors and enables automatic bidirectional translation. Driving EN with a push-pull output violates the bias requirement and can cause malfunction or excessive current draw in the LSF0102YZTR.
Can LSF0102YZTR translate between 1.0V and 5V?
Yes, LSF0102YZTR supports 1.0V ↔ 5V translation when Vref_A = 1.0V and Vref_B = 5V, provided Vref_B ≥ Vref_A + 0.8V (per datasheet Section 8.2.1.1.2). At this pairing, RON is 10Ω typical, enabling reliable LOW-level conduction. However, signal rise time is load-dependent - keep total capacitance ≤30pF for >100MHz down translation performance in the LSF0102YZTR.
Does LSF0102YZTR require external pull-up resistors on both sides?
LSF0102YZTR requires external pull-up resistors on the B-side (high-voltage domain) for all configurations. Pull-ups on the A-side are optional and only needed if the A-side receiver has leakage >1µA or if additional drive strength is required. For open-drain interfaces like I²C, B-side pull-ups are mandatory; A-side pull-ups may be omitted in push-pull-to-push-pull down translation scenarios.
What is the maximum capacitive load supported by LSF0102YZTR at 100MHz?
LSF0102YZTR supports ≤30pF total capacitive load (including trace, probe, and device capacitance) for guaranteed 100MHz down translation and >100MHz up translation. At 50pF load, maximum speed drops to 40MHz in either direction. Exceeding 30pF at 100MHz risks timing violations due to increased RC delay - verify CL with network analyzer or TDR when designing high-speed MDIO or SDIO paths with LSF0102YZTR.
Is LSF0102YZTR suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, LSF0102YZTR is qualified for −40°C to +125°C operation and meets JESD17 latch-up immunity (>100mA), making it suitable for under-hood and infotainment applications. It is not AEC-Q200 certified out-of-box, but its thermal and ESD specs align with automotive subsystem requirements. For ASIL-B or safety-critical domains, system-level validation of the LSF0102YZTR in context remains the responsibility of the end designer.
