Translators, Level Shifters FAQ

How does the device handle data direction?

The NTB0101GS,132 uses auto direction sensing technology, which automatically detects the direction of data flow between port A and port B without requiring an external control signal.

What is the function of the IOFF circuitry?

The IOFF circuitry enables partial power-down mode by disabling the outputs when either supply voltage is off, thereby preventing damaging backflow current through the device.
