NCA9701GXX

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The NCA9701GXX is a single-channel I2C translator and level shifter manufactured by Nexperia. It facilitates bidirectional voltage translation between different logic families, supporting supply voltages from 1.08 V to 3.6 V on both ports. The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a compact SOT886 package. Designed for low power consumption, it features a typical quiescent current of 1 µA. This component ensures signal integrity across mixed-voltage systems without requiring direction control signals.
