Technical Specifications
The TXS0104EPWRG4 is a 4-bit non-inverting translator with two supply rails (VCCA and VCCB) that can be set at any voltage between 1.65V and 5.5V. This device is designed for open-drain and push-pull applications. It also features a power-off circuit that ensures the I/O lines go to a high-impedance state when the device is powered down, preventing any damaging backflow current.
Package and Quality
Encased in a TSSOP-14 package, the TXS0104EPWRG4 is compact and suitable for space-constrained applications. It is also provided in tape and reel form for automated assembly processes. Texas Instruments is known for its commitment to quality, and this product is no exception, meeting strict industry standards for performance and reliability.
