  • A. For the RKS/RGY/RUK package, the exposed center thermal pad must be connected to ground.
  • B. Pullup resistors are not required on both sides for Logic I/O.
  • C. If pullup or pulldown resistors are needed, the resistor value must be over 50kΩ.
  • D. 50kΩ is a safe recommended value, if the customer can accept higher VOL or lower VOH, smaller pullup or pulldown resistor is allowed, the draft estimation is VOL = VCCOUT × 4.5k/(4.5k + RPU) and VOH = VCCOUT × RDW/(4.5k + RDW).
  • E. If pullup resistors are needed, please refer to the TXS0108 or contact TI.
  • F. For detailed information, please refer A Guide to Voltage Translation With TXB-Type Translators.

TXB0108 Typical Application

The TXB0108 can be used in level-translation applications for interfacing devices or systems operating at different interface voltages with one another. It can only translate push-pull CMOS logic outputs. If for opendrain signal translation, please refer to TI TXS010X products. Any external pulldown or pullup resistors are recommended to be larger than 50kΩ.
