TXB0101: Recommended pull down and pull up resistors for OE pin or can it be hard shorted?

Part Number: TXB0101

Hi Team,

I am using the TXB0101 in a bidirectional level-shifting/buffering application but requires both enabling and disabling the buffer according to various needs.

  1. Can I hard short the OE pin to ground and VCCA for enabling and disabling the buffer respectively or should I add pull-down and pull-up resistors for the same. If so what are the recommended values of the resistors?
  2. Also what is the recommended value of the bypass capacitors for the VCCA and VCCB pins for 12 MHz applications? Will 0.1uF do? 

Thanks in advance!

Kind Regards,

Arvind

  • The OE pin is a plain CMOS input. Such an input has an extremely high input impedance and does not need a pull-up/-down resistor.

    The bypass capacitor recommendation in all recent logic datasheets is:

    Each VCC terminal should have a good bypass capacitor to prevent power disturbance. A 0.1-μF capacitor is recommended for this device. It is acceptable to parallel multiple bypass caps to reject different frequencies of noise. The 0.1-μF and 1-μF capacitors are commonly used in parallel. The bypass capacitor should be installed as close to the power terminal as possible for best results, as shown in given example layout image.

  • Hi Clemens Ladisch,

    Thanks for the clarification. I'll go with the above suggested options.

    Kind Regards,
