Product details
Overview
TXB0108YZPR2 from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit bidirectional voltage-level translator with auto-direction sensing, supporting 1.2V–3.6V on A port and 1.65V–5.5V on B port (VCCA ≤ VCCB), ±15kV HBM ESD protection on B port, 4μA max ICC, and Ioff partial-power-down capability. It enables seamless logic-level translation between mixed-voltage domains in mobile processor-peripheral interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TXB0108YZPR2 datasheet, TXB0108YZPR2 pinout, TXB0108YZPR2 application, or TXB0108YZPR2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its auto-sensing bidirectional operation without direction control, VCC isolation behavior during power sequencing, thermal performance in DSGBA package (RθJA = 66.2°C/W), and compatibility with push-pull CMOS signals only-not open-drain.
Technical Context
The TXB0108YZPR2 implements a buffered architecture with edge-rate accelerators (one-shots) to enhance data rate across voltage domains. Its auto-direction sensing eliminates external direction-control logic by detecting signal transitions on either port to enable real-time bidirectional flow.
VCC isolation ensures all outputs enter high-impedance state if either VCCA or VCCB is at GND, preventing backfeed during partial power-down. The OE input is referenced to VCCA, and Ioff circuitry actively disables outputs when supply rails are unpowered-critical for system-level power management in portable electronics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| A-port voltage range | 1.2V to 3.6V - supports 1.2V/1.5V/1.8V/2.5V/3.3V logic families; VCCA must not exceed VCCB. |
| B-port voltage range | 1.65V to 5.5V - enables interface to 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V/5V peripherals including USB PHYs and display drivers. |
| Max data rate | 100 Mbps at VCCA = 3.3V/VCCB = 5V - sufficient for high-speed I²C, SPI, and GPIO expansion in smartphones. |
| ESD protection (B port) | ±15kV HBM - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 for robustness in handheld device front-end interfaces. |
| Quiescent current | 4μA max ICC - enables always-on level translation in battery-powered systems with minimal standby drain. |
| Propagation delay | 0.8 ns (A→B, VCCA=3.3V/VCCB=5V) - ensures timing-critical signal integrity in high-frequency peripheral links. |
| Channel skew | 0.3 ns max tSK(O) - maintains inter-signal alignment across all 8 channels for parallel bus applications. |
Pinout & Package
TXB0108YZPR2 uses the DSGBA (20-ball) package with 1.90mm × 2.40mm body size and 0.4mm pitch. Thermal performance is characterized with RθJA = 66.2°C/W and RθJB = 52.0°C/W, suitable for compact PCB layouts in space-constrained mobile designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A8 | A-port I/O (VCCA-referenced) | 8 bidirectional data lines tied to low-voltage domain (e.g., application processor core I/O). |
| B1–B8 | B-port I/O (VCCB-referenced) | 8 bidirectional data lines interfacing to higher-voltage peripherals (e.g., camera sensor, display interface). |
| VCCA | A-port supply | 1.2V–3.6V rail; powers A-side logic and OE input; must be ≤ VCCB. |
| VCCB | B-port supply | 1.65V–5.5V rail; powers B-side logic and determines B-port output swing. |
| OE | Output enable (VCCA-referenced) | Pull low to place all A/B ports in high-impedance; tie to GND via pulldown resistor for power-up safety. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for both domains; required for proper ESD current routing and noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Auto-direction sensing | Eliminates need for external direction-control signals-reduces PCB routing complexity and firmware overhead in bidirectional buses. |
| VCC isolation | Guarantees high-impedance outputs when either VCCA or VCCB is at GND-prevents back-current damage during asymmetric power sequencing. |
| Ioff partial-power-down | Disables outputs and blocks leakage paths when supplies are off-enables safe hot-plug operation and extends battery life in sleep modes. |
| ±15kV HBM ESD (B port) | Protects high-voltage I/O pins against electrostatic discharge in handheld assembly and end-user handling-reduces field failure risk. |
| Edge-rate acceleration | One-shot circuitry sharpens signal edges to sustain 100 Mbps throughput across full voltage range-avoids timing margin loss in fast-switching interfaces. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional voltage-level translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0108EYZTR | Open-drain architecture with internal pullups; supports true open-drain I²C/SMBus; no VCC isolation; lower ESD (±8kV HBM). | Required for I²C bus translation where pullup-dependent signaling is mandatory; unsuitable for push-pull GPIO or UART. | Select TXS0108EYZTR only when translating open-drain protocols; TXB0108YZPR2 remains preferred for push-pull CMOS interfaces requiring VCC isolation. |
| SN74AVC8T245RHLR | Direction-controlled (DIR pin required); no auto-sensing; higher ICC (24μA); 1.65V–3.6V dual-rail only; no ±15kV ESD. | Suitable for fixed-direction parallel buses (e.g., memory expansion); lacks safety features for asymmetric power sequencing. | Choose SN74AVC8T245RHLR for cost-sensitive, direction-stable applications; TXB0108YZPR2 is superior for dynamic bidirectional links with power sequencing constraints. |
Compared with TXS0108EYZTR and SN74AVC8T245RHLR, TXB0108YZPR2 uniquely combines auto-direction sensing, VCC isolation, and ±15kV B-port ESD-making it the only option for robust, direction-agnostic push-pull translation in portable devices with aggressive power management.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported data rate for TXB0108YZPR2 under typical operating conditions?
The TXB0108YZPR2 achieves up to 100 Mbps maximum data rate when VCCA = 3.3V and VCCB = 5V, with 0.8 ns typical propagation delay (A→B) and 0.3 ns channel-to-channel skew. This performance is validated across –40°C to 85°C and supports high-speed GPIO, SPI, and I²C clock stretching in smartphone platforms.
Does TXB0108YZPR2 support open-drain interfaces like I²C?
No, TXB0108YZPR2 is designed exclusively for push-pull CMOS logic translation. It lacks internal pullup resistors and cannot emulate open-drain behavior. For I²C or SMBus, TI recommends the TXS0108E series instead. Using TXB0108YZPR2 on open-drain buses may cause signal contention or logic errors.
How does the VCC isolation feature function in TXB0108YZPR2 during power sequencing?
When either VCCA or VCCB is driven to GND, TXB0108YZPR2 forces all A- and B-port outputs into high-impedance state regardless of OE status. This prevents back-current flow through I/O pins during asymmetric power-up/down sequences-critical for protecting processors and peripherals in multi-rail mobile systems.
What is the recommended OE pin termination for reliable power-up behavior in TXB0108YZPR2?
Tie OE to GND through a pulldown resistor (minimum value determined by driver strength; ≥50kΩ recommended). This ensures all ports remain in high-impedance until VCCA stabilizes, avoiding bus contention during power ramp. OE is referenced to VCCA, so it must not float during VCCA rise.
Can TXB0108YZPR2 translate between 1.2V and 5V logic levels safely?
Yes-TXB0108YZPR2 supports 1.2V on A port and 5V on B port (VCCA = 1.2V, VCCB = 5V), provided VCCA ≤ VCCB. Absolute maximum ratings allow VCCA up to 4.6V and VCCB up to 6.5V, but recommended operation limits are 1.2V–3.6V and 1.65V–5.5V respectively. Output VOHB reaches VCCB – 0.4V, ensuring valid 5V logic-high margins.
