Product details
Overview
TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a dual-supply 2-bit CMOS bus buffer enabling voltage-level translation between low-voltage A-side buses (1.2 V–2.5 V) and higher-voltage B-side buses (1.8 V–3.6 V), with 3-state output control via OE, 13.7 ns max propagation delay at 2.5 V/3.3 V, and operation over –40°C to +125°C for automotive and industrial interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT datasheet, TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT pinout, TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT application, or TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, US8 package layout, dual-rail DC/AC performance across 12 operating voltage combinations, truth table behavior, and real-world interface use cases in mixed-supply SoC subsystems.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual-rail CMOS buffer architecture with independent A-side (VCCA) and B-side (VCCB) supplies, supporting bidirectional voltage translation only from A-input to B-output. Inputs tolerate up to 3.6 V regardless of VCCA, and outputs are overvoltage-tolerant to 3.6 V even when powered down.
It features high-impedance (Z) 3-state outputs controlled by an active-low OE input, floating-A-bus capability when OE = H, and static protection on all pins. The design targets low-power, high-speed interconnection in battery-sensitive systems like portable electronics and automotive infotainment domain controllers.
Key Specifications

| VCCB Range | 1.65 V to 3.6 V - interfaces with 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 3.6 V B-side buses |
| tpd (max) | 13.7 ns @ VCCA=2.5 V, VCCB=3.3 V - enables sub-73 MHz data throughput in level-shifted paths |
| IOLB / IOHB (min) | 3 mA @ VCCB=3.0 V - drives standard CMOS loads without external buffering |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
| Package | US8 (JEDEC SOT-765) - 2.1 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.55 mm ultra-small footprint for space-constrained PCBs |
| Input Tolerance | Up to 3.6 V on all inputs - allows safe connection to higher-voltage buses without clamping diodes |
Pinout & Package
TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT is housed in an 8-pin US8 package (JEDEC SOT-765), measuring 2.1 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.55 mm with 0.5 mm pitch, optimized for high-density routing and thermal efficiency in portable and automotive modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (A1) | A-side input 1 | Low-voltage logic input referenced to VCCA; accepts 0.3×VCCA to 0.65×VCCA thresholds |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for both supply domains; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 3 (A2) | A-side input 2 | Second low-voltage input channel, electrically identical to A1 |
| 4 (VCCA) | A-side supply | Power rail for A-input logic; must be ≤ VCCB per datasheet Note 1 to prevent damage |
| 5 (OE) | Output enable (active low) | When low: enables B1/B2 outputs; when high: places B1/B2 in high-impedance state |
| 6 (VCCB) | B-side supply | Power rail for B-output drivers; sets VOH/VOL levels and output drive strength |
| 7 (B1) | B-side output 1 | Level-translated output referenced to VCCB; tolerates up to 3.6 V regardless of VCCB state |
| 8 (B2) | B-side output 2 | Second level-translated output, matched timing and drive to B1 |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage difference between VCCA and VCCB for TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT?
The TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT datasheet explicitly prohibits operation with VCCA > VCCB (Note 1 in Operating Ranges). While absolute maximum ratings allow both supplies up to 4.6 V, functional operation requires VCCA ≤ VCCB. For example, 1.8 V on VCCA and 3.3 V on VCCB is valid; 2.5 V on VCCA and 1.8 V on VCCB violates specification and may cause malfunction or damage. Always ensure VCCA is equal to or lower than VCCB.
Can TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT be used for bidirectional communication between two voltage domains?
No. TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT is a unidirectional A-to-B buffer only: signals flow from A1/A2 inputs to B1/B2 outputs. It does not support reverse direction (B-to-A) or auto-direction sensing. For bidirectional I²C or UART level shifting, consider alternatives like TXS0102DCUR. TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT is intended for controlled, one-way data paths such as CPU-to-peripheral or FPGA-to-IO-expander interfaces.
What is the recommended termination for TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT outputs driving PCB traces longer than 5 cm?
For traces exceeding 5 cm, terminate TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT B-side outputs with a 1 kΩ pull-up to VCCB and 30 pF load capacitance (per AC Test Circuit Table 11.1.2), matching the conditions used in datasheet timing characterization. Avoid series resistors on A-side inputs - the device's low input capacitance (7 pF typ.) minimizes reflection risk. Keep OE trace short and directly routed to reduce enable/disable skew.
Does TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT support hot-plug or live-insertion into a powered system?
Yes - TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT supports hot-plug operation due to its 3.6 V overvoltage tolerance on all pins and power-down protection. When VCCA is off but VCCB is active, inputs remain protected; when OE = H, B1/B2 enter high-impedance state, preventing back-driving. However, ensure VCCA is ramped before or simultaneously with VCCB per Note 1 in Absolute Maximum Ratings to avoid latch-up.
How does the floating-A-bus feature work in TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT when OE = H?
When OE = H, TC7WPN3125FK,LF(CT disables B1/B2 outputs (high-impedance Z state) and permits A1/A2 inputs to float - i.e., they need not be tied to VCCA or GND. This reduces system-level power and simplifies PCB routing in standby modes. However, floating A-inputs must not be left unterminated in active-OE states, as noise coupling could cause unintended switching or increased ICC.
