NXB0106BQX

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The NXB0106BQX is a dual supply translating transceiver with auto direction sensing and 3-state outputs, manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. It features six bidirectional data channels (An/Bn) within a DHVQFN16 package (SOT763-1). 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 supports partial power-down via IOFF circuitry, preventing backflow current when powered down. Operating temperature spans -40 °C to +125 °C.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Auto direction sensing enables bidirectional voltage level translation without explicit control signals for data flow direction.
• IOFF circuitry provides partial power-down mode operation, disabling outputs to prevent damaging backflow currents during power loss.
• High ESD protection capabilities exceeding specified thresholds for Human Body Model and Charged Device Model standards.

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Voltage level-translation applications interfacing devices operating at different supply voltages
• Partial power-down system designs requiring prevention of backflow currents
• Bidirectional data bus interfaces between low voltage nodes

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix BQX against official Nexperia documentation to confirm the DHVQFN16 package type and lead-free status. Ensure the requested quantity matches available manufacturing lot sizes. Confirm that the application environment remains within the specified -40 °C to +125 °C operating temperature range to maintain performance specifications.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring automatic bidirectional translation between 1.2 V–3.6 V and 1.65 V–5.5 V domains. It is suitable for applications needing partial power-down functionality to eliminate backflow currents. Ensure the design accommodates the DHVQFN16 package dimensions and thermal requirements. Verify that I/O lines do not require open-drain configurations, as pull-up resistors must exceed 50 kΩ to avoid contention.

Translators, Level Shifters FAQ

Does the NXB0106BQX require an external signal to control data flow direction?

No, the device features auto direction sensing and does not require an extra input signal to control the direction of data flow between ports A and B.

What happens if either VCC(A) or VCC(B) is switched off during operation?

The device enters power-down mode, and the IOFF circuitry disables all output ports to prevent damaging backflow currents through the device.
