Product details
Overview
NXB0102 from Nexperia is a 2-bit dual-supply bidirectional voltage-level translating transceiver with auto-direction sensing and 3-state output control. It enables seamless interface between 1.2 V–3.6 V logic domains (A-side) and 1.65 V–5.5 V domains (B-side), supports IOFF partial power-down, operates from −40 °C to +125 °C, and delivers up to 100 Mbps data rate in 3.3 V/5.0 V configurations - used in mixed-voltage microcontroller I/O expansion and FPGA-to-peripheral bridging.
For engineers reviewing the NXB0102 datasheet, NXB0102 pinout, NXB0102 application, or NXB0102 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions per package variant, real-world translation use cases, confirmed alternatives with documented functional differences, and supply-chain support for industrial embedded designs requiring robust level-shifting under wide voltage and temperature ranges.
Technical Context
The NXB0102 implements auto-direction sensing via edge-triggered one-shot circuits on each I/O pair, eliminating external direction-control signals. Its dual-rail architecture isolates A-port logic (VCC(A)-referenced) from B-port logic (VCC(B)-referenced), with OE referenced solely to VCC(A).
IOFF circuitry actively disables outputs during partial power-down, limiting backflow current to ±2 μA at −40 °C to +125 °C. Output impedance varies with VCCO: ~70 Ω at 1.2–1.8 V, ~50 Ω at 1.8–3.3 V, and ~40 Ω at 3.3–5.0 V - enabling controlled signal transitions without external termination.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC(A) Range | 1.2 V to 3.6 V - powers A-side I/Os and OE; must be ≤ VCC(B) for safe operation |
| VCC(B) Range | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - powers B-side I/Os; supports legacy 5 V and modern low-voltage interfaces |
| Propagation Delay | 0.8–15.9 ns - A→B/B→A delay varies with supply pair; e.g., 0.8 ns @ 3.3 V/5.0 V, 15.9 ns @ 1.5 V/1.8 V |
| Data Rate | Up to 100 Mbps - achievable at VCC(A)=3.3 V/VCC(B)=5.0 V over temperature (−40 °C to +125 °C) |
| IOFF Leakage | ±2 μA max - ensures <1 μA backflow during partial power-down, protecting unpowered systems |
| ESD Robustness | HBM: >15 kV on B-port, >2.5 kV on A-port - meets JEDEC JS-001 Class 3B/Class 2 for board-level reliability |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +125 °C - fully specified across automotive and industrial ambient ranges |
Pinout & Package
Available in three miniature packages: VSSOP8 (SOT765-1), XSON8 (SOT833-1), and WLCSP8 (SOT8023-1). All variants feature identical pin functionality with layout variations optimized for PCB density and thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1, A2 | A-side bidirectional I/O | Referenced to VCC(A); accepts inputs up to 5.5 V; drives outputs compliant with VCC(A) logic levels |
| B1, B2 | B-side bidirectional I/O | Referenced to VCC(B); accepts inputs up to 5.5 V; drives outputs compliant with VCC(B) logic levels |
| OE | Output enable (active HIGH) | Referenced to VCC(A); LOW forces all I/Os into high-impedance state; enables system-level bus isolation |
| VCC(A) | A-port supply rail | Powers internal A-side circuitry and OE input; must be ≤ VCC(B) during normal operation |
| VCC(B) | B-port supply rail | Powers internal B-side circuitry; supports wider voltage range for backward compatibility |
| GND | Common reference ground | Single ground connection shared by both supply domains; required for noise margin and ESD path integrity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-direction sensing | Edge-triggered one-shot circuitry detects data flow direction without external control lines - reduces PCB routing complexity and firmware overhead |
| Dual independent supply rails | VCC(A): 1.2–3.6 V; VCC(B): 1.65–5.5 V - enables direct interfacing between sub-1.8 V SoCs and 3.3/5.0 V peripherals without intermediate buffers |
| IOFF partial power-down | Active leakage suppression (<±2 μA) when either supply is off - prevents backfeeding and latch-up in hot-swap or sleep-mode systems |
| High-speed translation | Propagation delay as low as 0.8 ns (A→B @ 3.3 V/5.0 V); supports 100 Mbps data rates - suitable for SPI, I²C clock stretching, and GPIO expansion buses |
| Robust ESD protection | HBM >15 kV on B-port, >2.5 kV on A-port - exceeds JEDEC JS-001 Class 3B/2 requirements for handling and assembly reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply translating transceiver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0102DCUR | Requires external direction control (DIR pin); no auto-sensing; lower max VCC(B) = 5.5 V but only supports 1.65–5.5 V on B-side (same as NXB0102); IOFF supported | Lacks auto-direction capability - requires MCU GPIO or logic to manage DIR, increasing firmware complexity and pin count | Select when direction is static or predictable; avoid when bidirectional burst traffic (e.g., I²C) demands zero-latency direction switching |
| SN74AVC2T244RSWR | Two-channel, dual-supply buffer with direction control; no auto-sensing; higher drive strength (±12 mA); supports VCC(A)/VCC(B) = 1.2–3.6 V / 1.65–3.6 V only | Cannot interface to 5 V peripherals; lacks IOFF - unsuitable for partial power-down scenarios | Prefer for high-drive, fixed-direction applications where 5 V compatibility is unnecessary and drive strength >8 mA is required |
Compared with TXS0102DCUR and SN74AVC2T244RSWR, the NXB0102 uniquely combines auto-direction sensing, 5 V B-side compatibility, and IOFF - making it the only option among the three that supports dynamic bidirectional protocols (e.g., I²C, MDIO) in mixed-voltage automotive or industrial systems without external control logic or risk of backfeed.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage difference between VCC(A) and VCC(B)?
VCC(A) must always be ≤ VCC(B) during normal operation per datasheet Section 7 and Table 9. Absolute maximum ratings allow both supplies up to +6.5 V, but functional operation requires VCC(A) ≤ VCC(B) to prevent forward-biasing internal protection diodes and ensure correct one-shot triggering behavior.
Can NXB0102 translate between 1.2 V and 5.0 V logic domains?
Yes - VCC(A) can be set to 1.2 V (min) and VCC(B) to 5.0 V (within 1.65–5.5 V range). The device is fully characterized for this combination, with propagation delay of 5.2 ns (A→B) and 4.9 ns (B→A) at 25 °C, and supports 80 Mbps data rate across −40 °C to +125 °C.
Does NXB0102 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors?
No external biasing is required for basic operation. The auto-direction sensing relies on internal weak pull-ups/pull-downs within the one-shot circuitry. However, for noise immunity in high-EMI environments or long traces, 10 kΩ pull-ups on B-side lines are recommended per Application Note AN11125.
How does IOFF behave when only VCC(A) is powered?
When VCC(A) = 3.6 V and VCC(B) = 0 V, IOFF limits B-port leakage to ±2 μA max (Table 9). A-port leakage remains <±2 μA even with VCC(A) = 0 V and VCC(B) = 5.5 V - ensuring safe isolation of either domain during partial power-down sequences.
