AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications
– Temperature grade 1: –40°C ≤ TA ≤ 125°C
– Device HBM ESD classification level 2
– CDM ESD classification level C6
Provides auto-bidirectional voltage translation
without direction pin
Supports open drain or push-pull applications such
as I2C, I2S, SPI, UART, JTAG, MDIO, SDIO, and
GPIO
Supports up to 100-MHz up translation and greater
than 100-MHz down translation
at ≤ 30-pF capacitor load and up to 40-MHz up/
down translation at 50-pF capacitor load
Supports Ioff, partial power down mode (see
Section 7.3)
Allows bidirectional voltage level translation
between
– 0.95 V ↔ 1.8, 2.5, 3.3, 5.5 V
– 1.2 V ↔ 1.8, 2.5, 3.3, 5.5 V
– 1.8 V ↔ 2.5, 3.3, 5.5 V
– 2.5 V ↔ 3.3, 5.5 V
– 3.3 V ↔ 5.5 V
5-V tolerance on I/O ports
Low Ron enables better signal integrity
Flow-through pinout for easy PCB trace routing
Latch-up performance exceeds 100 mA per
JESD17
When the An or Bn port is LOW, the switch is in
the ON-state and a low resistance connection exists
between the An and Bn ports. The low Ron of the
switch allows connections to be made with minimal
propagation delay and minimal signal distortion. The
voltage on the A or B side will be limited to Vref_A and
can be pulled up to any level between Vref_A and 5.5
V
The supply voltage (VPUn) for each channel may be
individually set up with a pull up resistor. For example,
CH1 may be used in up-translation mode (1.2 V ↔
3.3 V) and CH2 in down-translation mode (2.5 V ↔
1.8 V).
When EN is HIGH, the translator switch is on, and
the An I/O is connected to the Bn I/O, respectively,
allowing bidirectional data flow between ports. When
EN is LOW, the translator switch is off, and a highimpedance state exists between ports. The EN input
circuit is designed to be supplied by Vref_A. EN must
be LOW to ensure the high-impedance state during
power-up or power-down.

3 Description
The LSF0204-Q1 is automotive qualified four channel
auto bidirectional voltage translator that operate from
0.8 V to 4.5 V (Vref_A) and 1.8 V to 5.5 V (Vref_B).
This range allows for bidirectional voltage translations
between 0.8 V and 5.5 V without the need for a
direction pin.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The LSF0204-Q1 may be used in level translation applications for interfacing devices or systems operating
at different interface voltages. The LSF0204-Q1 is ideal for use in applications where an open-drain driver is
connected to the data I/Os. LSF0204-Q1 can achieve 100 MHz data rate with the appropriate pull-up resistors
and layout design. The LSF0204-Q1 can also be used in applications where a push-pull driver is connected to
the data I/Os.

SLVSEM4B – JUNE 2018 – REVISED APRIL 2021
7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Auto-Bidirectional Voltage Translation Without DIR Pin Terminal
The LSF0204-Q1 device is an auto bidirectional voltage level translator that operates from 0.95 V to 4.5 V on
Vref_A and 1.8 V to 5.5 V on Vref_B. This allows bidirectional voltage translation between 0.95 V and 5.5 V
without the need for a direction pin in open-drain or push-pull applications.
7.3.2 Support Multiple High Speed Translation Interfaces
The LSF0204-Q1 device is able to perform voltage translation for open-drain interfaces such as I2C, MDIO,
SMBUS, and PMBUS or push-pull interfaces such as I2S, SPI, UART, SDIO, and GPIO. The LSF0204-Q1
device supports level translation applications with transmission speeds greater than 100 MHz using a 200-Ω
pullup resistor with a 15-pF capacitive load. See the Down Translation with the LSF family and Up Translation
with the LSF family videos.
7.3.3 5-V Tolerance on IO Port and 125°C Support
The LSF0204-Q1, provides up to 5-V over-voltage tolerance on each of its IO channels. The device operating
ambient temperature from –40°C to 125°C is critical in supporting automotive applications.
7.3.4 Channel Specific Translation
The LSF0204-Q1 can work as multi-voltage level translator using specific pullup voltage (Vpu) on each IO
channel. Watch the Multi-Voltage Translation with the LSF Family video.
7.3.5 Ioff, Partial Power Down Mode
When Vref_A or Vref_B = 0, all the data IO pins are in high impedance.
EN logic circuit is referenced to Vref_A supply. No power sequence is required to enable and operate LSF0204Q1.

8.2.1.1 Design Requirements
8.2.1.1.1 Enable, Disable, and Reference Voltage Guidelines
The LSF0204-Q1 has an EN input that is used to disable the device by setting EN LOW, which places all I/Os
in the high-impedance state. Since LSF0204-Q1 is switch-type voltage translator, the power consumption is very
low. It is recommended to always enable LSF0204-Q1 for bidirectional application (I2C, SMBus, PMBus, or
MDIO).

Vref_B is recommended to be 1.0 V higher than Vref_A for best signal integrity.
The LSF0204-Q1 device enables multi-voltage translation by using the desired pull up voltage on each of the
channels.
Note
Vref_A must be set as lowest voltage level while using the device in multi-voltage translation
application.
8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.1.2.1 Bidirectional Translation
The controller output driver may be push-pull (pull-up resistors may be required) or open-drain (pull-up resistors
required) and the peripheral device output can be push-pull or open-drain (pull-up resistors are required to pull
the Bn outputs to Vpu).
Note
However, if either output is push-pull, data must be unidirectional or the outputs must be 3-state and
be controlled by some direction-control mechanism to prevent HIGH-to-LOW contentions in either
direction. If both outputs are open-drain, no direction control is needed.
In Figure 8-1, the reference supply voltage (Vref_A) is connected to the processor core power supply voltage.
When Vref_B is connected through to a 3.3 V Vpu power supply, and Vref_A is set 1.0 V. The output of A3
and B4 has a maximum output voltage equal to Vref_A, and the bidirectional interface (Ch1/2, MDIO) has a
maximum output voltage equal to Vpu.
8.2.1.2.1.1 Pull-Up Resistor Sizing
The pull-up resistor value needs to limit the current through the pass transistor when it is in the ON state to about
15 mA. This ensures a pass voltage of 260 mV to 350 mV. If the current through the pass transistor is higher
than 15 mA, the pass voltage also is higher in the ON state. To set the current through each pass transistor at 15
mA, to calculate the pull-up resistor value use Equation 1.
Rpu = (Vpu – 0.35 V) / 0.015 A
(1)
Table 8-3 summarizes resistor values, reference voltages, and currents at 15 mA, 10 mA, and 3 mA. The resistor
value shown in the +10% column (or a larger value) should be used to ensure that the pass voltage of the
transistor is 350 mV or less. The external driver must be able to sink the total current from the resistors on both
sides of the LSF0204-Q1 device at 0.175 V, although the 15 mA applies only to current flowing through the
LSF0204-Q1 device.
The LSF0204-Q1 does not provide any drive capability. Therefore higher frequency applications will require
higher drive strength from the host side. No pullup resistor is needed on the host side (3.3 V) if the LSF0204-Q1
is being driven by standard CMOS totem pole output driver. Best practice is to minimize the trace length from the
LSF0204-Q1 on the sink side (1.8 V) to minimize signal degradation.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
There are no power sequence requirements for the LSF0204-Q1. See Table 8-2 for recommended operating
voltages for all supply and input pins.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
The signal integrity of the switch-type based LSF0204-Q1 level translator is dependent on the pull-up resistor
and the PCB board parasitic capacitance. Consider the following recommendations when designing with the
LSF0204-Q1:
•
•
•
•
Minimize the trace length to reduce the parasitic capacitance
The trace length should be less than half the time of flight to reduce ringing and line reflections or nonmonotonic behavior in the switching region
Minimize stubs on the signal path
Place the LSF0204-Q1 device near the high voltage side
