txb0104 latching high?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TXB0104

I am attempting to level shift a digital input to a GPIO on an ARM micro.

I am manually simulating the digital input by using a push -button connected between  VccB and B4 and a 56k pull down resistor.

when I push the button both A4 and B4 go high and remain high.  It appears that  A4  goes high, latches high and pushes back towards the button.

I have tried a pull down resistor on the GPIO side with no luck.

what am I missing?

  • Hi,

    Can you show me your schematic? or show the diagram of the connection for the TXb0104? then I can be clear for your design.

    Also, I need to know is it appears power on or all power supply is OK, you just put the button to add the pull down resistor? for the A side, any pull up resistor added or any driver drive it?

    I need to know your clear applicaiton and what is your target and what is the status of the A side.

  • in this iteration the port "digital" is input only. it level shifts a 5v pulse from external electronics for the 3.3v tolerant gpios.  A TXB0104 was used to allow bidirectional interfaces in the future. The other ports where used because they were convenient, but are not critical.

    the button is temporary - purely for software development.

    On pressing the button, A and B side both go high and stay high. A holds at approximately 3.3v and B holds at approx 5v.  There is a wire between jp9 and p9. if this is pulled both A and B remain high.  A pulldown resistor on side A will pull both A and B low when it is connected, but once it is connected it has no more effect. Attempting to drive A low from the micro causes the micro to become unstable and the port to oscillate.

  • Simulate your digital signal with two pushbuttons, one to VCC and one to GND.

  • Hi,

    Yes, if you want to simulate this, please add two buttons, one to Vcc to simulate high, one to GND to simulation "Low".

    this TXB familiy part needs the driver has a little stronger drive capability. Your 56Kohms is a little higer can not raise the original high to low.  any further questions, please let me know.
