Product details
Overview
TXS0206AYFPR from Texas Instruments is a bidirectional SD/MMC voltage-translation transceiver designed to interface application processors (1.1–3.6 V I/O) with SD cards and MMC peripherals operating at different voltage levels (e.g., 1.8 V or 3.3 V). It supports up to 60 Mbps data rate, features 4.4 ns max propagation delay (1.8 V ↔ 3.0 V), integrated 40-kΩ pullup resistors on all data/command lines, and operates across –40°C to +85°C. It enables seamless host-to-card communication in space-constrained mobile storage interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TXS0206AYFPR datasheet, TXS0206AYFPR pinout, TXS0206AYFPR application, or TXS0206AYFPR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, WCSP package layout, SD card interface timing constraints, ESD robustness (±2500-V HBM), and real-world implementation guidance for mobile and embedded memory subsystems.
Technical Context
The TXS0206AYFPR implements an auto-direction-sensing, passive-level-shifting architecture without external bias or direction control signals. Its dual-supply design (VCCA and VCCB independently configurable from 1.1 V to 3.6 V) allows asymmetric voltage translation-e.g., 1.8-V host ↔ 3.3-V SD card-and supports both push-pull and open-drain driving modes on CMD/DAT lines.
It integrates dedicated clock translation (CLKA → CLKB), clock feedback (CLK-f), write-protect (WP), and card-detect (CD) signal handling-all with internal pullups referenced to respective supply rails. The EN pin provides full 3-state control of B-port outputs, enabling dynamic power gating during card insertion/removal sequences.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SD/MMC voltage translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0206YZPR | Same silicon die and electrical specs; differs only in tape-and-reel packaging (YFP vs YZP) and RoHS compliance status (lead-free vs lead-free with exemption). | No functional difference; identical pinout, timing, and thermal behavior - suitable for drop-in replacement where packaging format aligns with SMT line requirements. | Select TXS0206YZPR if your production line requires 7-inch tape reels with 3000-unit quantity per reel and full RoHS-6 compliance without exemptions. |
| SN74AVC4T245PW | Quad-channel, dual-supply translator with manual direction control (DIR pin); no integrated SD-specific functions (WP/CD/CLK-f); higher ICC (20 µA typical). | Lacks auto-direction sensing, clock feedback, and SD protocol-aware features - requires additional GPIOs and firmware logic to manage direction and card state. | Choose SN74AVC4T245PW only for non-SD applications requiring general-purpose 4-bit bidirectional translation with explicit direction control. |
Compared with TXS0206YZPR, the TXS0206AYFPR offers identical electrical performance but differs in packaging configuration and regulatory marking; compared with SN74AVC4T245PW, it delivers SD-optimized integration (auto-direction, CLK-f, WP/CD) that reduces firmware overhead and PCB component count by 6+ passives.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported SD card speed mode for TXS0206AYFPR?
The TXS0206AYFPR supports up to 60 Mbps data rate and 60 MHz clock frequency, fully compliant with SD high-speed mode (SDR25) and UHS-I SDR12/SDR25 specifications. It achieves this with propagation delays as low as 3.2 ns (VCCA = 3.3 V, VCCB = 3.3 V), ensuring setup/hold timing margins for reliable high-speed transfers. TXS0206AYFPR does not support DDR50 or UHS-I DDR modes due to lack of dedicated DDR clock handling circuitry.
Does TXS0206AYFPR require external pullup resistors on SD data and command lines?
No, TXS0206AYFPR integrates 40-kΩ pullup resistors on all bidirectional data (DAT0–DAT3) and command (CMD) lines on both A-port and B-port sides. This eliminates the need for eight external resistors in a standard 4-bit SD interface, reducing PCB area, bill-of-materials cost, and potential signal integrity variation from discrete component tolerances. TXS0206AYFPR also includes 100-kΩ pullups on WP and CD pins.
How does the EN pin function in TXS0206AYFPR, and what is its timing behavior?
The EN pin on TXS0206AYFPR is an active-high enable that places all B-port outputs (CMDB, DAT0B–DAT3B, CLKB) into high-impedance state when driven low. Enable/disable times (ten/tdis) are guaranteed ≤1 µs across all VCC conditions, allowing rapid, hardware-controlled isolation of the SD card bus during hot-plug events. This prevents bus contention and ensures safe card insertion/removal without software intervention. TXS0206AYFPR's EN pin is referenced to VCCA and requires no external debouncing.
Can TXS0206AYFPR translate between 1.2-V and 3.3-V SD interfaces?
Yes, TXS0206AYFPR supports asymmetric voltage translation with VCCA and VCCB independently configurable from 1.1 V to 3.6 V. It has been characterized for 1.2-V ↔ 3.3-V operation, delivering 60 Mbps data rate and 5.3 ns propagation delay (tpd) under those conditions. The device maintains valid VOH/VOL levels and timing margins across this range, making it suitable for interfacing low-voltage application processors with legacy 3.3-V SD cards without intermediate regulators or additional level-shifting stages.
What is the purpose of the CLK-f pin on TXS0206AYFPR, and how is it used?
The CLK-f (clock feedback) pin on TXS0206AYFPR provides a resynchronized version of the translated clock signal back to the host processor, referenced to VCCA. This enables the host to precisely align data capture windows with the actual clock edge delivered to the SD card - compensating for propagation delay mismatches between CLK-f and data paths. CLK-f is essential for achieving timing closure in high-speed SD read operations where data-to-clock skew could otherwise cause sampling errors. TXS0206AYFPR drives CLK-f with controlled rise/fall times (≤2.5 ns) to ensure clean edges for host PLL locking.
