Overview
The NTB0104UK, produced by NXP USA Inc., is a 4-bit, dual supply translating transceiver designed for bidirectional voltage level translation. This device features auto direction sensing, making it versatile for various voltage level translation needs. It includes two 4-bit input-output ports (An and Bn), one output enable input (OE), and two supply pins (VCC(A) and VCC(B)). The NTB0104UK is particularly suited for applications requiring translation between different low voltage nodes, such as 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5.0 V. The device is available in a 12-pin WLCSP (Wafer Level Chip-Scale Package) and is fully specified for partial power-down conditions, enhancing its usability in power-sensitive applications.
