TXB0104-Q1 Descripción general

The Texas Instruments TXB0104-Q1 is an automotive-grade 4-bit bidirectional voltage-level translator with automatic direction sensing and +/-15 kV ESD protection, available in a 14-pin TSSOP (PW) package. It translates between two independent supply rails: the A port tracks VCCA from 1.2 V to 3.6 V, while the B port tracks VCCB from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, enabling any-to-any translation between 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains.

A voltage-level translator is a logic-family device that allows integrated circuits operating at different supply voltages on the same PCB to exchange digital signals safely. Within the power-and-signal-management hierarchy, it sits alongside buffers and bus switches as a fundamental interface IC, preventing overvoltage damage and ensuring valid logic thresholds between low-voltage MCUs, FPGAs, and 5 V peripherals.

Key features include auto-direction sensing, which eliminates the DIR control pins required by '245-style translators, a data rate of up to 100 Mbps, and VCC isolation: when either supply is at GND, all I/O enters Hi-Z. The AEC-Q100-qualified TXB0104-Q1 also carries +/-15 kV HBM ESD protection, exceeding the standard JESD ratings cited in the TI datasheet family.

Architecturally, the TXB0104 uses a self-directed, edge-rate-driven one-shot scheme that detects the direction of each transition and briefly strengthens the opposite driver, allowing it to drive 4 channels in either direction without software intervention. The OE pin three-states all outputs for power sequencing and bus isolation.

Typical applications include SPI and UART level conversion between 3.3 V MCUs and 5 V peripherals, GPIO expansion in automotive body and infotainment modules, and mixed-voltage FPGA I/O. Note that the push-pull architecture is not recommended for open-drain buses such as I2C or 1-Wire; use the TXS0104E-Q1 for those.

Design consideration: keep unloaded outputs low-impedance driven or grounded, since the auto-direction circuitry can oscillate on lightly loaded or capacitively large nets; series resistors above 25 k-ohm are not supported.

This page adds value beyond the TI datasheet by synthesizing distributor availability, drop-in alternatives (NXP NTS0304E, ADI ADG3304), and practical design notes for automotive level-shifter selection.

Aplicaciones típicas

TXB0104-Q1 es adecuado para 6 aplicacións: Automotive Body Control Modules, SPI and UART Level Translation, Mixed-Voltage FPGA I/O Expansion, Industrial Sensor Interface, Portable and Consumer Mixed-Rail Designs, Infotainment and Display Interfaces.

🚗

Automotive Body Control Modules

The TXB0104-Q1 is AEC-Q100 qualified, making it suitable for level translation between a 3.3 V microcontroller and 5 V automotive peripheral sensors or actuators inside body control modules, gateways, and lighting controllers. Its +/-15 kV ESD rating withstands harsh 12 V-vehicle assembly and in-service environments, while VCC isolation (Hi-Z when either rail is grounded) protects the logic during cold-crank and load-dump power sequencing events. Placed on the MCU GPIO bank with OE tied to the 3.3 V rail through an RC delay, all four channels safely bridge 1.8-3.3 V processor I/O to legacy 5 V modules. The auto-direction feature removes firmware burden - no direction pins need servicing inside interrupt routines. Keep translations below 100 Mbps and avoid open-drain buses, using TXS0104E-Q1 for those nets.

⚙️

SPI and UART Level Translation

SPI (up to ~50 MHz clock) and UART signaling are push-pull, exactly matching the TXB0104-Q1's auto-direction push-pull architecture. Connecting a 1.8 V or 3.3 V MCU to a 5 V SD card, flash memory, or GPS module requires only the translator between rails: SCLK, MOSI, and CS flow MCU-to-peripheral while MISO flows back, and the one-shot direction sensing handles per-edge direction changes on the shared net without software overhead. The 100 Mbps rating provides generous timing margin over standard SPI clock rates. Place the device close to the load with 100 nF decoupling on both VCCA and VCCB. Do not add series resistors above 25 k-ohm on SPI lines - they weaken the edge-rate detection and cause signal integrity failures.

🔧

Mixed-Voltage FPGA I/O Expansion

FPGA banks such as those on Xilinx 7-series devices often run banks at 1.8 V while board-level peripherals, LEDs, and legacy buses expect 3.3 V or 5 V. The TXB0104-Q1 bridges these domains on general-purpose push-pull nets: VCCA tracks the 1.8 V bank rail, VCCB tracks the 3.3 V or 5 V system rail, and the OE pin, driven by FPGA power-good, guarantees Hi-Z during configuration to prevent bus contention with other reset-of-fab drivers. Its 100 Mbps capability supports medium-speed parallel buses and status signaling beyond what resistor-divider solutions allow. For heavily loaded nets, verify that trace capacitance stays below the one-shot re-trigger threshold; short point-to-point routes on the same PCB are the intended topology.

🏭

Industrial Sensor Interface

Industrial controllers frequently mix a modern 3.3 V MCU with 5 V-dominant sensors, encoders, and legacy PLC-side signaling. The TXB0104-Q1's 1.2-3.6 V VCCA and 1.65-5.5 V VCCB ranges cover this exact combination, and its -40C to +125C operating envelope suits cabinet and machine-mounted electronics. Because each channel auto-senses direction, bidirectional lines such as ready/acknowledge handshakes work without host intervention. The +/-15 kV ESD capability provides extra margin near connector-entry points, though TVS diodes remain best practice on field-wired nets. Note that the push-pull architecture suits TTL/CMOS push-pull sensor outputs only; for open-collector NPN sensor outputs, add an external pull-up stage or select the TXS0104E-Q1 instead.

📱

Portable and Consumer Mixed-Rail Designs

Battery-powered consumer products commonly combine a 1.8 V application processor with 3.3 V memory cards, 2.5 V RF modules, and 5 V USB-attached accessories. The TXB0104-Q1's wide 1.2 V VCCA support allows translation from the lowest processor banks, while VCC isolation prevents back-powering when the 5 V accessory rail is absent - all I/O go Hi-Z, protecting both sides. Although the standard TXB0104 may suffice for non-automotive builds, using the Q1 version adds thermal and ESD margin at near-identical cost. Keep VCCA decoupled with 100 nF close to the pin, sequence OE after both rails are stable, and route the four channels as short matched pairs when carrying clocked data above 50 Mbps.

📺

Infotainment and Display Interfaces

Automotive infotainment head units bridge 1.8 V/3.3 V SoC graphics and control banks to 5 V backlight controllers, touch-controller interrupts, and legacy display enable lines. The TXB0104-Q1 translates four such control/status channels with auto-direction, eliminating direction-control firmware in display bring-up code. Its AEC-Q100 grade and -40C to +125C range meet cabin environment requirements, and the +/-15 kV ESD rating adds robustness at the display FPC connector where assembly handling stress is highest. Use OE under SoC power-good control so the translator stays Hi-Z through infotainment power sequencing and standby transitions. For high-speed LVDS or SerDes video itself, dedicated serializers are required - the TXB0104-Q1 serves the low-speed control plane only.

What is the TXB0104-Q1 and what are its key specifications?
The TXB0104-Q1 is Texas Instruments' automotive-grade 4-bit bidirectional voltage-level translator with automatic direction sensing and +/-15 kV ESD protection. Key specs: VCCA from 1.2 V to 3.6 V, VCCB from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, 100 Mbps data rate, push-pull 3-state outputs with an OE pin, and VCC isolation. According to TI's product page, it is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive use and packaged in TSSOP-14 (TXB0104QPWRQ1).
What supply voltage ranges does the TXB0104-Q1 support?
The TXB0104-Q1 uses two independent supply rails. The A port tracks VCCA, which accepts any supply from 1.2 V to 3.6 V, while the B port tracks VCCB from 1.65 V to 5.5 V. Per the Mouser product description of the TXB0104 family, this enables translation between common logic nodes such as 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5 V without any external direction control.
Can the TXB0104-Q1 be used for I2C or 1-Wire (open-drain) buses?
No - the TXB0104-Q1 is not recommended for I2C or 1-Wire open-drain applications. TI's E2E forum confirms that its push-pull auto-direction architecture cannot handle open-drain signaling correctly; an engineer replacing a 1-Wire DQ application reported the design failed with the TXB0104. For open-drain buses, choose the TXS0104E-Q1, which is designed specifically for open-drain and I2C translation.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the TXB0104-Q1?
The best same-package drop-in alternatives are the TI TXS0104EPWR (TSSOP-14, adds open-drain support) and the standard-grade TXB0104PWR (same die, non-automotive). Cross-brand pin-compatible options confirmed in public cross-references include the NXP NTS0304E (TSSOP-14) and the Analog Devices ADG3304BRUZ (TSSOP-14), which an engineer on TI E2E explicitly evaluated as a pin-to-pin replacement for the TXB0104-Q1. Verify parametric limits before qualifying any substitute.
What is the difference between the TXB0104-Q1 and TXB0104 (standard grade)?
The TXB0104-Q1 is the AEC-Q100-qualified automotive version of the standard TXB0104; both share the same 4-bit auto-direction architecture, 1.2-3.6 V VCCA and 1.65-5.5 V VCCB ranges, 100 Mbps data rate, and TSSOP-14 package footprint. According to TI's product pages, the Q1 variant adds automotive qualification and full -40C to +125C Grade 1 support. Design files using TXB0104PWR can generally accept TXB0104QPWRQ1 without layout change.
TXB0104-Q1 vs TXS0104E-Q1 - which is better for my design?
Choose the TXB0104-Q1 for push-pull signals (SPI, UART, GPIO) where its auto-direction sensing and 100 Mbps rate give the cleanest edges and lowest cost. Choose the TXS0104E-Q1 when the bus is open-drain (I2C, 1-Wire, MDIO) because only the TXS family tolerates external pull-ups and wired-OR contention. Both come in the same TSSOP-14 footprint, so footprint migration is trivial, but electrical behavior on open-drain nets differs fundamentally.
When should I choose the TXB0104-Q1 over the NXP NTS0304E?
Choose the TXB0104-Q1 when you need guaranteed AEC-Q100 automotive qualification, a single-sourced TI supply chain, and the documented 100 Mbps auto-direction performance. The NXP NTS0304E is a credible pin-compatible alternative in TSSOP-14 identified through the NXP community cross-reference, useful for dual-sourcing or shortage mitigation, but verify its data-rate and drive limits against your net loading before qualifying it as a direct substitute.
Is the ADG3304 a suitable replacement for the TXB0104-Q1?
Yes, with verification. The Analog Devices ADG3304BRUZ is a functionally similar 4-channel bidirectional level translator in the same 14-pin TSSOP package, and a TI E2E thread discusses it specifically as an automotive pin-to-pin part with the TXB0104QPWRQ1 proposed as the reverse replacement. The ADI part uses a different internal architecture, so check maximum data rate, drive strength, and unloaded-output behavior against the TXB0104-Q1's 100 Mbps spec before committing.
Where can I download the TXB0104-Q1 datasheet PDF?
The TXB0104-Q1 datasheet PDF is available directly from Texas Instruments at the official product page, ti.com/product/TXB0104-Q1, under the Documentation tab. Mirror copies of the approximately 20-page datasheet are listed on aggregator sites such as Alldatasheet and Datasheet4U, but always download from TI.com to guarantee the latest revision. The document covers recommended operating conditions, ESD ratings, and package thermal data.
Where can I buy the TXB0104QPWRQ1 and what does it cost?
The TXB0104QPWRQ1 is stocked by major distributors including Mouser and DigiKey; DigiKey lists the TSSOP-14 version with ship-today availability on the TXB0104QRUTRQ1 (UQFN-12) as well. XAIPART pricing shown on this page breaks from about $0.72 at qty 1 down to roughly $0.31 at qty 1000 as of 2026-10-11. For production volumes, request a formal quote since distributor pricing fluctuates weekly.
Is the TXB0104-Q1 in stock and what is the lead time?
Distributor data indicates active production status with stock at Mouser and DigiKey, meaning lead time is typically immediate for small quantities of the TXB0104QPWRQ1. TI's product page lists the family as active (not NRND or EOL). For large automotive production programs, confirm the allocated lead time with your distributor because logic-family parts in Q1 grades can carry 12-26 week factory lead times when demand spikes.
Does the TXB0104-Q1 need external pull-ups or direction-control signals?
No. The TXB0104-Q1 senses signal direction automatically on every edge via internal one-shot circuits, so no DIR pins exist, and it requires no external pull-up or pull-down resistors on data lines - in fact, series resistors above roughly 25 k-ohm are not supported because they defeat the one-shot drivers. Only the OE pin (active-high) needs control if you want Hi-Z isolation; tie it to VCCA for always-enabled operation.
Why do outputs oscillate or fail with my TXB0104-Q1 circuit?
The most common causes are (1) applying the device to open-drain buses like I2C or 1-Wire, which its push-pull auto-direction architecture cannot serve, and (2) heavy capacitive loading combined with weak or absent drivers on lightly loaded nets, which can trigger one-shot re-triggering and oscillation. TI E2E threads document both failure modes. Reduce trace capacitance, avoid long unterminated stubs, and switch to TXS0104E-Q1 for open-drain protocols.
What are the TXB0104-Q1 ESD protection ratings?
The TXB0104-Q1 carries +/-15 kV ESD protection as highlighted by TI's product page title ("auto direction sensing and +/-15kV ESD"). The related TXB0104 datasheet family additionally cites HBM ratings above 2500 V, MM 200 V, and CDM 1500 V per JESD-referenced tests. In practice this means the device tolerates automotive assembly-floor handling better than standard logic, though proper board-level ESD design is still required for external connector-facing lines.
What is the difference between the TXB0104-Q1 and the newer TXU0104-Q1 / TXU0304-Q1?
The TXU family (TXU0104-Q1, TXU0204-Q1, TXU0304-Q1) is TI's newer fixed-direction translating-transceiver generation, discussed on TI E2E alongside the TXB0104-Q1. TXU parts use pin-controlled direction rather than auto-direction sensing, giving lower static power and more predictable timing on loaded nets, but requiring direction firmware or wiring. If your board already relies on auto-direction, stay with TXB0104-Q1; for new designs with known data flow, the TXU family is generally recommended.

Guía de selección

Choose the TXB0104-Q1 (TXB0104QPWRQ1) when you need 4 channels of push-pull, bidirectional translation between a 1.2-3.6 V rail and a 1.65-5.5 V rail in an automotive or high-reliability environment: its AEC-Q100 grade, +/-15 kV ESD rating, and 100 Mbps rate cover MCU-to-peripheral SPI, UART, and GPIO tasks. Choose the TXS0104E-Q1 instead whenever any bus is open-drain (I2C, 1-Wire, MDIO) - the TXB architecture physically cannot serve those nets. Choose the standard TXB0104PWR for cost-driven consumer builds that do not need Q1 screening. For new designs where data direction is fixed and known, the newer TI TXU0104/TXU0304 family offers lower power with explicit direction control. Cross-brand dual-sourcing options in the same TSSOP-14 footprint include the NXP NTS0304E and ADI ADG3304, both requiring parametric verification before qualification.

Notas de diseño

Never use the TXB0104-Q1 on I2C, 1-Wire, MDIO, or any open-drain bus. Its push-pull auto-direction architecture actively drives both rails, fighting external pull-ups and corrupting wired-OR data - this exact failure is documented in TI E2E thread 1577689 where a 1-Wire DQ design failed. Select the TXS0104E-Q1 (same TSSOP-14 footprint) for open-drain protocols. Also avoid series resistors above approximately 25 k-ohm in series with any data line: the one-shot direction-detection relies on edge rates that high resistance destroys.

Place 100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitors within 2 mm of both VCCA and VCCB pins, each with a low-inductance via to ground. Route the four translated channels as short, direct point-to-point nets below 50 mm; long or capacitively heavy traces (multi-drop stubs, cable harnesses) can exceed the one-shot drive capability and cause ringing or re-trigger oscillation. Tie the OE pin to VCCA through an RC (e.g., 10 k-ohm plus 100 nF) so outputs stay Hi-Z until both rails are stable, preventing bus contention during power sequencing.

The TXB0104-Q1 drives push-pull nets to 100 Mbps, but leave unused channels driven low from the source side or tied to ground on one port - floating auto-direction inputs can self-oscillate. For clocked buses (SPI above 50 MHz), verify setup/hold at the receiver since the translator adds propagation delay on every edge; consult the manufacturer datasheet timing tables for your exact VCCA/VCCB combination. For mixed push-pull and open-drain systems, dedicate TXB channels to push-pull and reserve a TXS0104E-Q1 for the open-drain nets rather than compromising on one part.
