ON Semiconductor 7WBD3306DTR2G Product Overview

The ON Semiconductor 7WBD3306DTR2G is a high-performance, low-voltage dual bidirectional I2C-bus and SMBus voltage-level translator with an enable (EN) input. It is specifically designed to provide bidirectional voltage-level translation between low voltage (down to 0.8V) and higher voltage (2.7V to 5.5V) I2C-bus or SMBus applications. This makes it ideal for multi-voltage systems where communication between different voltage nodes is required.

Key Features

• Voltage-Level Translation: Bidirectional translation between 0.8V and 2.7V to 5.5V.
• High-Speed Operation: Supports fast-mode and standard-mode I2C-bus devices and multiple masters.
• Enable Input: The EN input can be used to switch the device on and off, allowing for isolation of the I2C-bus lines during power-up sequences.
• Low Standby Current: Helps to minimize power consumption when the translator is not in active use.
• Flow-Through Design: Simplifies PCB layout with near-direct connection of the I2C lines to the translator.

Applications

The 7WBD3306DTR2G is versatile and can be used in a variety of applications, including:

• Level shifting for I2C/SMBus applications
• Mobile devices where battery life is critical
• Consumer electronics interfacing with different logic levels
• Communication between devices operating at different voltage levels

Product Specifications

• Package: The device is offered in a compact TSSOP-8 package, which is suitable for space-constrained applications.
• Operating Temperature: Designed to operate over a broad temperature range, making it suitable for industrial applications.

With its ability to provide seamless communication across different voltage levels, the ON Semiconductor 7WBD3306DTR2G is an essential component for designers looking to create interoperable systems that require I2C or SMBus communication protocols. Its small footprint and low power consumption make it an excellent choice for portable and battery-powered applications where efficiency is paramount.
