Hi,
TXS0108E is used for IIC level conversion, with a communication rate of about 1MHz. The customer wants to connect a 100 ohm resistor on the signal line, as shown below. Is this feasible?
Thanks!

This will add a voltage drop to the signal line (the current through both pull-up resistors will also flow through this resistor). This might or might not be a problem in the customer's circuit, depending on the other devices' actual VOL and VIL.
Hey Jeno,
In addition to Clemens' response, you may also refer to Factors Affecting VOL for TXS and LSF Auto-bidirectional Translation Devices for further clarification.
Note that the TXS will not be able to buffer the I2C signals. Is the series resistor attempting to impedance match with a transmission line? If so, I2C buffers can be used instead to redrive I2C signals over longer distances/ heavier cap. loads.
