NTB0101GS1Z

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The NTB0101GS1Z is a 1-bit dual supply translating transceiver with auto direction sensing, designed for bidirectional voltage level translation. It features two 1-bit input-output ports (A and B), one output enable input (OE), and two supply pins (VCCA and VCCB). VCCA operates between 1.2 V and 3.6 V, while VCCB operates between 1.65 V and 5.5 V. The device supports data rates up to 100 Mbps and includes IOFF circuitry for partial power-down applications. It is housed in a 6-X2SON package.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Auto direction sensing eliminates the need for an extra control signal to manage data flow direction between ports A and B.
• IOFF circuitry enables partial power-down mode by disabling outputs to prevent damaging backflow current when powered down.
• Wide supply voltage range allows translation between various low voltage nodes including 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V.
• High ESD protection performance exceeds specified JESD standards for HBM, MM, and CDM on both ports.

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Voltage level-translation applications interfacing devices operating at different supply voltages
• Partial power-down applications requiring prevention of backflow current
• Systems requiring bidirectional data transfer without explicit direction control signals

Translators, Level Shifters FAQ

How does the device handle data direction?

The NTB0101GS1Z uses auto direction sensing to automatically determine 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 disables the outputs when either supply voltage is at ground level, preventing damaging backflow current through the device during partial power-down conditions.
