NTS0308 8-Bit Dual-Supply Translating Transceiver

NXP's transceiver offers a longer one-shot pulse for driving larger capacitive loads with reduced ringing and overshoot

Image of NXP's NTS0308 8-bit Dual-Supply Translating TransceiverNXP's NTS0308E is an 8-bit dual-supply translating transceiver with automatic direction sensing that enables bidirectional voltage-level translation. It features eight 1-bit input/output ports (A and B), one output-enable input (OE), and two supply pins (VCC(A) and VCC(B)). VCC(A) can be supplied at any voltage between 0.95 V and 3.6 V. VCC(B) can be supplied at any voltage between 1.65 V and 5.5 V. This flexibility makes the device suitable for translating between any of the voltage nodes (0.95 V, 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V). VCC(A) must be less than or equal to VCC(B) to ensure proper operation. Pins A and OE are referenced to VCC(A) and pin B is referenced to VCC(B). A LOW level at pin OE causes the outputs to assume a high-impedance OFF-state.

Features
  • Wide supply voltage range:
    • VCC(A): 0.95 V to 3.6 V
    • VCC(B): 1.65 V to 5.5 V
