Product details
Overview
NVT2010BS,118 from NXP Semiconductors is a 10-bit bidirectional voltage-level translator IC enabling seamless level shifting between 1.0 V–3.6 V (Vref(A)) and 1.8 V–5.5 V (Vref(B)) domains without direction control. It features 3.5 Ω typical ON-state resistance, <1.5 ns max propagation delay, 5 V-tolerant I/Os, and supports open-drain and push-pull interfaces in industrial, automotive, and embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the NVT2010BS,118 datasheet, NVT2010BS,118 pinout, NVT2010BS,118 application, or NVT2010BS,118 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 10-bit flow-through pinout in HVQFN24, EN-controlled high-impedance disable, ESD robustness (>4 kV HBM), and compatibility with I²C, SMBus, and GPIO interconnects across mixed-voltage SoC designs.
Technical Context
The NVT2010BS,118 implements a symmetrical MOSFET-based clamping architecture where each A/B pair forms a bidirectional pass switch controlled by Vref(A) and Vref(B). Its EN input-supplied by Vref(B)-enables synchronous on/off switching of all 10 channels with lock-up free operation.
It operates with no direction pin by leveraging voltage-dependent clamp conduction: when An is LOW, Bn is pulled to Vref(A); when Bn is HIGH, An is limited to Vref(A); when An is HIGH, Bn is pulled to Vpu(D). This allows true bidirectional translation for both up- and down-shifting in systems like multi-rail I²C buses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bit width | 10-bit parallel translation with matched channel characteristics |
| Vref(A) range | 1.0 V to 3.6 V - sets low-side logic threshold and output clamp voltage |
| Vref(B) range | 1.8 V to 5.5 V - supplies EN and defines high-side pull-up domain |
| Max propagation delay | <1.5 ns - enables >33 MHz operation in 50 pF open-drain systems |
| ON-state resistance | 3.5 Ω typical - minimizes signal distortion and voltage drop under 64 mA load |
| ESD rating | >4 kV HBM, 1000 V CDM - protects downstream 1.0 V/1.2 V logic from bus transients |
| Operating temperature | −40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial and automotive ambient environments |
Pinout & Package
HVQFN24 package: plastic thermal enhanced very thin quad flat package, no leads, 24 terminals, body 4.0 × 4.0 × 0.85 mm, exposed thermal pad, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Common 0 V return for all internal switches and bias circuitry |
| VREFA | Low-voltage reference supply | Sets clamp voltage for An ports; must be ≤ VREFB − 1 V for reliable operation |
| VREFB | High-voltage reference supply | Powers EN input and defines Bn pull-up domain; ≥1.8 V, ≤5.5 V |
| EN | Enable control input | Active-HIGH; must be driven from VREFB domain; pulls all I/Os to high-Z when LOW |
| A1–A10 | Low-voltage side I/Os | Bidirectional ports referenced to VREFA; connect to 1.0–3.6 V logic with external pull-ups as needed |
| B1–B10 | High-voltage side I/Os | Bidirectional ports referenced to VREFB; tolerate up to 5.5 V; require external pull-ups to Vpu(D) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No direction pin required | Enables automatic bidirectional translation in I²C/SMBus without MCU GPIO overhead or timing-critical control signals |
| Flow-through pinout | Minimizes PCB trace length and crosstalk in dense routing; A1/B1 adjacent, A2/B2 adjacent, etc., in HVQFN24 layout |
| 5 V-tolerant B-side I/Os | Allows direct interface to legacy 5 V peripherals while protecting 1.0 V core logic from overvoltage stress |
| Low 3.5 Ω Ron | Reduces voltage droop and timing skew across all 10 channels, critical for high-speed GPIO and clock distribution |
| High-impedance disable | EN = LOW places all A/B pins in Hi-Z state - essential for hot-swap, power sequencing, and bus isolation |
Applications
| I²C Bus Level Translation | Multi-Rail SoC Interconnect |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Connecting a 1.8 V application processor I²C master to 3.3 V or 5 V sensors, EEPROMs, or PMICs on the same bus.

Use Value: Prevents back-powering or latch-up between isolated power rails during partial system failure. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional voltage translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PCA9306DCUR | 8-bit, 2-channel configuration; lower max Vref(B) = 5.0 V; higher Ron ≈ 7 Ω typical | Limited to 2 independent translation paths; not suitable for 10-bit parallel GPIO banks | Select when only 2-channel translation is needed and board space favors MSOP-8 |
| NVT2008PW,118 | 8-bit version in TSSOP20; identical architecture and specs except bit count and package | Requires redesign for 10+ signal lines; lacks pin compatibility with NVT2010BS,118 HVQFN24 layout | Choose for cost-sensitive 8-bit applications where TSSOP footprint is preferred |
Compared with PCA9306DCUR and NVT2008PW,118, the NVT2010BS,118 delivers 10-bit parallel translation in a compact HVQFN24 with lower Ron and superior channel matching-critical for synchronized multi-signal interfaces like camera sensor control or memory-mapped I/O expansion.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported data rate for NVT2010BS,118 in an open-drain I²C configuration?
The NVT2010BS,118 supports up to 33 MHz in open-drain systems with 50 pF bus capacitance and 197 Ω pull-up, based on its <1.5 ns propagation delay and low 3.5 Ω ON-resistance. For standard-mode I²C (100 kHz) and fast-mode (400 kHz), it operates reliably with typical rise/fall times governed by external RPU and CL. Actual maximum frequency depends on layout, driver strength, and total node capacitance.
Can NVT2010BS,118 translate between 1.0 V and 5.0 V without external components?
Yes, the NVT2010BS,118 natively supports 1.0 V (Vref(A)) to 5.0 V (Vref(B)) translation, but requires external pull-up resistors on the B-side (to Vpu(D)) and proper EN biasing via a 200 kΩ resistor to Vref(B). No direction logic or additional active components are needed-the internal clamping architecture handles bidirectional flow automatically.
Is the HVQFN24 package of NVT2010BS,118 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the NVT2010BS,118 in HVQFN24 (SOT616-1) is RoHS-compliant and lead-free per EU Directive 2011/65/EU and NXP's product environmental compliance documentation. The package uses matte tin (Sn) termination and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 requirements.
How does the EN pin function during power-up sequences for NVT2010BS,118?
The EN pin of NVT2010BS,118 must be held LOW during power-up to ensure all A/B I/Os remain in high-impedance state until both Vref(A) and Vref(B) are stable. Since EN is referenced to Vref(B), it should be tied to Vref(B) through a pull-down or controlled by a power-good signal synchronized to the higher rail. This prevents undefined states or bus contention during ramp-up.
Does NVT2010BS,118 support push-pull drivers on both A and B sides simultaneously?
No-NVT2010BS,118 supports push-pull drivers only on the A-side (low-voltage domain). On the B-side, outputs must be open-drain or 3-stateable with external pull-ups; using push-pull drivers on both sides risks HIGH-to-LOW contention. The datasheet explicitly requires direction control or 3-state management if either side uses totem-pole outputs.
