Product details
Overview
NTB0101GM,115 from NXP Semiconductors is a 1-bit dual-supply auto-direction-sensing voltage-level translating transceiver enabling bidirectional translation between 1.2 V–3.6 V (VCC(A)) and 1.65 V–5.5 V (VCC(B)) domains. It features 6-terminal XSON6 (SOT886) packaging, 3-state output control via active-HIGH OE, and IOFF circuitry for partial power-down protection. It is used in mixed-voltage I²C-adjacent digital interfaces where dynamic direction detection eliminates external control logic.
For engineers reviewing the NTB0101GM,115 datasheet, NTB0101GM,115 pinout, NTB0101GM,115 application, or NTB0101GM,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 40 Mbps data rate at −40 °C to +125 °C, 7.5 pF B-port input/output capacitance, ±1 µA max OFF-state leakage, 0.8 ns min pulse width support, and compatibility with 1.2 V/1.8 V ↔ 3.3 V/5.0 V system interconnects.
Technical Context
The NTB0101GM,115 implements an edge-detecting one-shot architecture that autonomously enables PMOS or NMOS drive transistors during rising/falling transitions-accelerating signal edges without requiring direction-control signals. Its dual-rail I/O cells reference A-side signals to VCC(A) and B-side signals to VCC(B), with internal clamping and ESD protection rated to 15 kV HBM on the B port.
IOFF circuitry ensures safe partial power-down: when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) is at GND, outputs enter high-impedance state and backflow current is blocked. The device operates across −40 °C to +125 °C and supports asymmetric supply sequencing-no strict ramp-order requirement between VCC(A) and VCC(B).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC(A) Range | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - powers A-port logic and OE input; must be ≤ VCC(B) during operation |
| VCC(B) Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - powers B-port logic and defines B-side output swing |
| Data Rate | Up to 100 Mbps at 3.3 V/5.0 V supplies and 25 °C - enables high-speed GPIO bridging in industrial controllers |
| Propagation Delay | 0.8–7.7 ns (A↔B) - low-latency translation critical for real-time sensor interface timing budgets |
| ESD Rating (B port) | HBM JESD22-A114E Class 3B > 15,000 V - robustness against handling and board-level ESD events |
| IOFF Leakage | ±1 µA max at 0 V supply - prevents damaging back-current when one domain is powered off |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor-drive environments |
Pinout & Package
XSON6 plastic extremely thin small outline package (SOT886); 1.0 × 1.45 × 0.5 mm body; no leads; 6 terminals; wettable flank option not specified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC(A) | Supply voltage A | Reference for A-port I/O and OE input; must be ≤ VCC(B) during active operation |
| GND | Ground (0 V) | Common return path for both supply domains; required for ESD clamp reference |
| A | Data I/O (VCC(A)-referenced) | Bidirectional signal terminal; auto-senses direction based on edge activity |
| B | Data I/O (VCC(B)-referenced) | Bidirectional signal terminal; higher voltage tolerance (up to 5.5 V input) |
| OE | Output enable (active HIGH) | Controls 3-state mode; LOW forces high-impedance on both A and B ports |
| VCC(B) | Supply voltage B | Reference for B-port I/O; sets VOH/VOL levels and maximum input voltage rating |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-direction sensing | Eliminates need for external direction-control signals or microcontroller GPIO coordination |
| Dual-rail IOFF protection | Blocks damaging backflow current when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) is powered down |
| Asymmetric supply support | Enables direct interfacing between 1.2 V FPGA I/O banks and 5.0 V MCU peripherals |
| Low dynamic power | CPD as low as 0.01 pF in 3-state mode reduces switching noise in battery-powered IoT nodes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage-level translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0101DCKR | Single-channel, auto-direction, 1.65–5.5 V VCCA / 1.65–5.5 V VCCB; no VCC(A) ≤ VCC(B) constraint; higher 10 pF B-port capacitance | Supports symmetric rail translation only; lacks 1.2 V VCC(A) support needed for advanced low-power SoCs | Select when interfacing two ≥1.65 V domains and IOFF is not required |
| NTZ0101GM,115 | Same XSON6 package and pinout; optimized for 1.2–3.3 V ↔ 1.8–5.5 V; lower 5.5 pF B-port capacitance; identical IOFF and ESD specs | Targeted for newer designs requiring tighter timing margins and lower dynamic loading | Drop-in replacement if design uses same layout; preferred for next-gen ultra-low-power systems |
Compared with NTB0101GM,115, TXS0101DCKR offers broader supply flexibility but sacrifices 1.2 V compatibility and IOFF safety; NTZ0101GM,115 delivers improved signal integrity at identical footprint and thermal profile, making it optimal for timing-critical upgrades.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage difference between VCC(A) and VCC(B) for NTB0101GM,115?
The NTB0101GM,115 requires VCC(A) ≤ VCC(B) during normal operation per datasheet Section 12.4. While VCC(A) may temporarily exceed VCC(B) during power-up without damage, sustained operation outside this constraint risks undefined behavior or reduced reliability. Absolute maximum ratings allow both supplies up to +6.5 V independently, but functional compliance mandates VCC(A) ≤ VCC(B).
Does NTB0101GM,115 support I²C bus translation?
No, NTB0101GM,115 is not recommended for I²C applications. Its weak static drive strength (designed for capacitive loads ≤70 pF) and lack of open-drain compatibility create contention risks with standard I²C pull-ups. NXP explicitly recommends the NTS0101 for I²C and 1-Wire use cases. NTB0101GM,115 targets push-pull GPIO, UART, and SPI signal bridging instead.
What is the disable time (tdis) for NTB0101GM,115 when OE goes LOW?
The disable time tdis for NTB0101GM,115 is 1.0–12.5 ns (depending on supply and temperature), measured from OE transition to actual high-impedance state. At 25 °C with VCC(A) = 1.8 V and VCC(B) = 3.3 V, typical tdis is 6.9 ns for A port and 8.5 ns for B port. Full datasheet Table 11–12 specifies worst-case values across −40 °C to +125 °C.
Can NTB0101GM,115 operate with VCC(A) = 1.2 V and VCC(B) = 5.0 V simultaneously?
Yes, NTB0101GM,115 is fully specified for simultaneous operation at VCC(A) = 1.2 V and VCC(B) = 5.0 V. This configuration enables translation from ultra-low-power 1.2 V logic domains (e.g., advanced SoC I/O) to legacy 5.0 V peripherals. Static and dynamic parameters-including VOH/VOL, propagation delay, and ESD immunity-are validated across this full supply combination per datasheet Tables 6–12.
Is NTB0101GM,115 pin-compatible with other NTB0101 variants like NTB0101GW or NTB0101GF?
No, NTB0101GM,115 is not pin-compatible with NTB0101GW (SC-88/SOT363) or NTB0101GF (XSON6/SOT891). Although all share identical functionality and logic pin assignments, NTB0101GM,115 uses SOT886 (1.0 × 1.45 mm), while NTB0101GW uses SOT363 (2.1 × 1.25 mm) and NTB0101GF uses SOT891 (1.0 × 1.0 mm). Mechanical dimensions and land patterns differ; PCB redesign is required for substitution.
