NTB0104BQ,115

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The NTB0104BQ,115 is a 4-bit dual supply translating transceiver with auto direction sensing. It supports bidirectional voltage level translation between 1.2V-3.3V and 1.65V-5.5V interfaces. The device features a propagation delay of 5.9 ns and operates at data rates up to 80 Mbps or 100 Mbps depending on the source. It is housed in a DHVQFN-14 package (2.5x3 mm). Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +125°C. Supply voltages are specified with a minimum of 1.2V and maximums varying by rail (3.6V or 5.5V). It holds AEC-Q100 qualification.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Bidirectional voltage level translation between low-voltage and high-voltage domains
• Auto direction sensing eliminates need for direction control pin
• AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., 115 vs Q100X) against official NXP documentation to confirm packaging and reel specifications. Ensure the DHVQFN-14 footprint matches your PCB design. Confirm AEC-Q100 compliance requirements if used in automotive contexts. Cross-reference datasheet revision dates for accurate electrical characteristics.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when bidirectional translation is required without explicit direction control signals. Verify that the voltage levels of both sides fall within the supported ranges of 1.2V-3.3V and 1.65V-5.5V. Consider the 5.9 ns propagation delay for timing-sensitive designs. Ensure thermal management supports the -40°C to +125°C operating range.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

Part of the NTB0104 series of translating transceivers. Designed for seamless communication between different voltage domains. Commonly used in automotive electronics where robustness and bidirectional data flow are critical. Competes with other level shifters offering similar channel counts and speed capabilities.

Translators, Level Shifters Replacement Considerations

Check NXP's official replacement list for direct substitutes. Generic level shifters may lack auto-direction sensing or AEC-Q100 qualification. Verify pin compatibility and voltage ranges before substituting.
