PI4ULS5V102GAEX

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The PI4ULS5V102GAEX is a 2-bit universal bi-directional level shifter manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It operates with VCCA ranging from 1.2V to 3.6V and VCCB from 1.65V to 5.5V, supporting data rates up to 100Mbps. The device features automatic direction control, an output-enable pin, and Ioff for partial-power-down mode. It is housed in an 8-pin CSP package.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Automatic direction control eliminates the need for external direction signals
• Supports partial-power-down mode via Ioff circuitry to prevent backflow current
• Provides high-impedance state when either supply rail is at ground potential

Translators, Level Shifters Applications

• Interfacing devices operating at different interface voltages
• Universal low-voltage bidirectional translation between logic nodes
• Partial-power-down applications requiring output disable during power loss

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific GAEX suffix corresponds to the 8-pin Wafer Level (CSP) package configuration as documented in the manufacturer's ordering information. Confirm that the component meets Pb-free and Green specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing systems with distinct voltage domains where VCCA must not exceed VCCB. Ensure the driving source provides sufficient current strength for proper operation. Verify that the application does not require open-drain drivers on the bidirectional data lines.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This part belongs to the ULS series of universal bi-directional level shifters. It utilizes advanced architecture to manage data flow without explicit control signals. The device is designed for surface-mount assembly and supports standard logic voltage levels across its dual ports.

Translators, Level Shifters Replacement Considerations

Consult official documentation for confirmed substitute part numbers. Verify package compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substituting.
