Product details
Overview
TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a dual-supply 2-bit bus buffer IC designed for voltage-level translation between mismatched logic domains. It supports A-side supply voltages from 1.2 V to 2.7 V and B-side supplies from 1.65 V to 3.6 V, delivers 12 mA output drive at 3.0 V B-side, achieves 6.8 ns max propagation delay (VCCA = 2.5 V, VCCB = 3.3 V), and operates across –40 °C to +125 °C - enabling use in automotive infotainment power management interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT datasheet, TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT pinout, TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT application, or TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, dual-rail operating condition constraints, high-impedance enable timing (tPZL/tPZH ≤ 9.9 ns), 3.6 V tolerant I/Os, and real-world interface design guidance for mixed-voltage SoC interconnects.
Technical Context
The TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT implements two independent bidirectional buffer channels with separate A-input and B-output rails, each controlled by a shared active-low OE input that places both B-outputs in high-impedance state. Its silicon-gate CMOS process enables overvoltage tolerance up to 3.6 V on all pins regardless of supply state, and floating A-bus operation is permitted when OE = "H".
It features dual independent supply domains: VCCA powers input circuitry and internal logic, while VCCB powers output drivers and level-shifting stages. The device enforces VCCA ≤ VCCB per datasheet Note 1, and includes ESD protection on all pins plus power-down leakage control (IOFF1/IOFF2 ≤ ±2.0 µA at Ta = 85 °C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCCA Range | 1.1 V to 2.7 V - supports 1.2 V/1.5 V/1.8 V/2.5 V logic domains on A-side |
| VCCB Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - interfaces with 1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V buses on B-side |
| tpd (max) | 6.8 ns @ VCCA = 2.5 V, VCCB = 3.3 V - enables >100 MHz data transfer in low-latency paths |
| IOLB / IOHB | 12 mA min @ VCCB = 3.0 V - drives standard CMOS loads without external buffers |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control applications |
| Package | US8 (JEDEC SOT-765) - 2.1 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.55 mm ultra-small footprint for space-constrained PCBs |
| IOZB (OFF-state) | ±2.0 µA max @ Ta = 85 °C - ensures minimal signal coupling during isolation |
Pinout & Package
US8 package: 8-pin ultra-small surface-mount package with 0.5 mm pitch, dimensions 2.1 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.55 mm, weight 0.01 g (typ.), JEDEC designation SOT-765.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (A1) | A-side input channel 1 | Accepts logic signals referenced to VCCA; tolerant to 3.6 V regardless of VCCA state |
| 2 (A2) | A-side input channel 2 | Independent of A1; enables dual-bit parallel translation without shared logic |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return for both supply domains; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 4 (VCCA) | A-side supply | Powers input stage and internal logic; must be ≤ VCCB per datasheet constraint |
| 5 (VCCB) | B-side supply | Powers output drivers; sets VOH/VOL thresholds and output current capability |
| 6 (OE) | Active-low output enable | Drives both B-outputs to high-Z when high; must be driven from VCCA-referenced logic |
| 7 (B1) | B-side output channel 1 | Level-shifted replica of A1; 3.6 V tolerant even when VCCB = 0 V |
| 8 (B2) | B-side output channel 2 | Level-shifted replica of A2; electrically isolated from B1 except via shared VCCB/GND |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent supply rails | VCCA and VCCB operate independently - allows interfacing 1.2 V FPGA I/O with 3.3 V MCU peripherals |
| 3.6 V tolerant I/Os | All pins withstand 3.6 V regardless of supply status - eliminates need for external clamping diodes |
| Ultra-low OFF-state leakage | IOZB ≤ ±2.0 µA at 125 °C - maintains signal integrity during hot-swap or partial power-down |
| High-speed translation | 6.8 ns max tpd at 2.5 V/3.3 V - supports DDR clock domains and fast serial control links |
| Floating A-bus support | A1/A2 may be left unconnected when OE = "H" - simplifies PCB routing in unused channel scenarios |
Applications
| Automotive Infotainment Interface | Industrial PLC I/O Module |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Translating control signals between a 1.2 V automotive SoC and 3.3 V CAN transceiver or display driver. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-rail level shifter buffering command lines (e.g., reset, enable) with sub-10 ns latency and rail-to-rail voltage compatibility. Use Value: Eliminates discrete resistor-divider networks while maintaining AEC-Q100-compliant timing margins and thermal robustness up to 125 °C. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply bus buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74AVC2T244RSWR | Single 2-bit buffer with identical US8 package but only supports VCCA = 1.2–3.6 V / VCCB = 1.2–3.6 V; no explicit VCCA ≤ VCCB constraint | Broader supply flexibility but lacks guaranteed 3.6 V I/O tolerance during power-off states | Prefer when symmetric rail ranges are required and power sequencing independence is critical |
| TXS0102DCUR | Auto-direction sensing dual-bit translator in VSSOP-8; requires no OE pin but adds direction-control latency (~20 ns) | Eliminates OE routing but unsuitable for synchronous, OE-gated bus isolation like JTAG or SPI chip-select | Prefer when bidirectional data flow dominates and deterministic enable timing is not required |
Compared with SN74AVC2T244RSWR and TXS0102DCUR, the TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT uniquely guarantees 3.6 V I/O tolerance during VCCB = 0 V conditions and enforces strict VCCA ≤ VCCB operation - making it optimal for automotive and industrial systems where supply ramp rates differ and fault-tolerant isolation is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage difference between VCCA and VCCB for TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT?
The TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT datasheet explicitly prohibits operation with VCCA > VCCB (Note 1 in Section 10). While absolute maximum ratings allow both supplies up to 4.6 V, functional operation requires VCCA ≤ VCCB across the full operating range - e.g., 1.8 V on VCCA and 2.5 V on VCCB is valid; 2.5 V on VCCA and 1.8 V on VCCB is not permitted. This constraint ensures correct internal level-shifting and prevents latch-up.
Can TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT safely interface a 1.2 V microcontroller with a 3.3 V peripheral when VCCA = 1.2 V and VCCB = 3.3 V?
Yes - the TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT is fully specified for VCCA = 1.2 ± 0.1 V and VCCB = 3.3 ± 0.3 V operation. At these conditions, it delivers 22 ns max propagation delay, 52 ns max output disable time, and maintains 3.6 V I/O tolerance on all pins. However, output drive strength drops to 3 mA min (IOLB/IOHB) at VCCB = 1.65 V, so verify load capacitance and rise/fall time requirements for your 3.3 V peripheral.
Does TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on unused inputs?
No - unused inputs (A1, A2, OE) must be tied to either VCCA or GND per Section 10 Note. The TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT does not include internal weak pull-ups/pull-downs. Leaving inputs floating violates the Absolute Maximum Ratings and risks increased ICC or erratic behavior due to noise coupling. OE must be actively driven - tying OE to VCCA disables outputs; tying to GND enables them.
What is the meaning of "floating A-bus is permitted" in the TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT datasheet?
When OE = "H", both B-outputs enter high-impedance state and the internal A-input receivers are effectively disconnected. Under this condition, A1 and A2 may be left unconnected (floating) without causing excessive current or logic contention - a feature useful in modular designs where one channel is unused. This permission applies only during OE = "H"; A inputs must be driven or terminated when OE = "L".
How does TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT handle power sequencing where VCCB ramps before VCCA?
The TC7WP3125FK,LF(CT includes power-down protection: all I/Os tolerate 3.6 V regardless of supply state, and IOFF1/IOFF2 leakage remains ≤ ±20.0 µA even when VCCA = 0 V and VCCB = 3.3 V (Section 11.1.2). This allows safe "VCCB-first" sequencing common in automotive systems, provided OE is held high until VCCA stabilizes to prevent unintended output activation.
