Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LSF0101, SN74AXC1T45
Hi,
can two TXB0101 be connected in series or what would be a suitable solution to connect a 1V8 system bidirectionally to the input of a 3V3 TXB0101?
Thanks and regards,
Manuel

No. TXB inputs require other devices to have a drive strength of at least 2 mA (see section 9.2.1.1 of the datasheet). But TXB outputs provide only 20 µA.
Furthermore, TXB outputs cannot handle a capacitive load of more than 70 pF. This device might not work when you are using cables/connectors.
With the TXB at the output of "System 2", no other bidirectional level shifter is possible. Are the signals really bidirectional?
Thanks for the reply, but I have to ask again, it is also not possible to connect the LSF0101 to the TXB0101? If I see it correctly, the LSF0101 has a low input capacitance and a high output current, right?
Alternatively, what would be a suitable level translator with directional control (the dir pin should then be controlled by the system controller 1 at 1V8) that could be connected to the TXB0101?
The LSF is a passive switch with a drive strength of zero. It outputs open-drain signals; those do not work with the TXB.
A suitable direction-controlled level shifter would be the SN74AXC1T45.
