TXS0108 Typical Application

The TXS0108E can be used in level-translation applications for interfacing devices or systems operating at different interface voltages with one another. The device is an excellent choice for use in applications where an open-drain driver is connected to the data I/Os. The device is appropriate for applications where a push-pull driver is connected to the data I/Os, but the TXB0104 device, 4-Bit Bidirectional Voltage-Level Translator might be a better option for such push-pull applications. The device is a semi-buffered auto-direction-sensing voltage translator design is optimized for translation applications (for example, MMC Card Interfaces) that require the system to start out in a low-speed open-drain mode and then switch to a higher speed push-pull mode.
