Texas Instruments TXS0108E Bidirectional Voltage-Level Shifter

Texas Instruments TXS0108E Bidirectional Voltage-Level Shifter is an 8-bit non-inverting level translator that uses two separate configurable power-supply rails. The A port tracks the VCCA pin supply voltage. The VCCA pin accepts any supply voltage between 1.4V and 3.6V. The B port tracks the VCCB pin supply voltage. The VCCB pin accepts any supply voltage between 1.65V and 5.5V. Two input supply pins on the Texas Instruments TXS0108E allow for low voltage bidirectional translation between any of the 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V voltage nodes.

When the output-enable (OE) input is low, all outputs are placed in the high-impedance (Hi-Z) state. To ensure the Hi-Z state during power-up or power-down periods, tie OE to GND through a pull-down resistor. The minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sourcing capability of the driver.
