NXB0101GSH

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The NXB0101GSH is a 1-bit dual supply translating transceiver with auto direction sensing and 3-state outputs. It enables bidirectional voltage level translation between ports A and B. Supply voltage VCC(A) ranges from 1.2 V to 3.6 V, while VCC(B) ranges from 1.65 V to 5.5 V. The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. It features IOFF circuitry for partial power-down applications, preventing backflow current when powered down.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Auto direction sensing eliminates the need for external control signals to manage data flow direction between ports.
• IOFF circuitry supports partial power-down mode by disabling outputs to prevent damaging backflow currents.
• High electrostatic discharge protection capabilities on both ports ensure robustness against ESD events.

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Voltage level-translation applications interfacing devices operating at different supply voltages
• Partial power-down applications requiring prevention of backflow current during power-off states

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package variant matches the design requirement, as the GS suffix denotes the SOT1202 XSON6 package. Confirm that the ordering suffix corresponds to the intended reel or cut tape configuration. Ensure the selected component meets the required automotive or industrial qualification standards if applicable to the final system environment.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when bidirectional translation between low voltage nodes (1.2 V to 5.5 V) is required without dedicated direction control pins. Ensure VCC(A) does not exceed VCC(B) during normal operation. Verify that the application does not require open-drain characteristics, as pull-up resistors must exceed 50 kΩ to avoid contention issues.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

The NXB0101 series includes variants such as NXB0101GW in the TSSOP6 package and NXB0101GM in the XSON6 package. These components belong to Nexperia's portfolio of dual supply translating transceivers designed for mixed-voltage system integration. The GSH designation specifically identifies the GS package version with associated handling specifications.

Translators, Level Shifters FAQ

Can VCC(A) be higher than VCC(B) during power-up?

Yes, during power-up VCC(A) can be greater than or equal to VCC(B) without damaging the device, although VCC(A) must not exceed VCC(B) during normal operation.

Is the NXB0101 suitable for I2C bus applications?

No, it is not recommended for open-drain driver applications like I2C because pull-up resistors must be kept higher than 50 kΩ to avoid output contention issues.
