Texas Instruments TXG404x Ground-Level Translators

Texas Instruments TXG404x Ground-Level Translators are 4-bit, fixed-direction, non-galvanic-based voltage and ground-level translators that support both logic-level shifting between 1.71V and 5.5V and ground-level shifting up to ±40V. Compared to traditional level shifters, the TXG404x family solves the challenges of voltage translation across different ground levels.

VCCB is referenced to GNDB, and VCCA is referenced to GNDA. Bx pins are referenced to VCCB logic levels, while Ax pins are referenced to VCCA logic levels. Both A port and B port accept voltages from 1.71V to 5.5V. This device includes two enable pins that can place the respective outputs in a high-impedance state when the OE pin is connected to GND or left floating. The output is default low when OE is high in the event of input power or signal loss. The leakage between GNDA and GNDB is < 45nA when VCC to GND is shorted.

The Texas Instruments TXG404x device enhances power sequencing and noise immunity across different ground domains, while providing low power consumption, reduced latency, and minimized channel-to-channel skew. The device suppresses noise levels of 80VPP up to 5MHz. The TXG404x can support multiple interfaces, including SPI, UART, GPIO, and I2S.
