SN65EPT21DGKR

Texas Instruments · Translators / Level Shifters · VSSOP-8-0.65mm

SN65EPT21DGKR from Texas Instruments, in a VSSOP-8-0.65mm. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 NC unconnected No connect. Leave floating.
2 D input Non-inverting differential LVPECL/LVDS/CML input. Internal 50 kΩ pull-down; add external pull-up per pin-assignment note. Bias to VBB when used single-ended.
3 D_N input Inverting differential LVPECL/LVDS/CML input (D-bar). Internal 50 kΩ pull-up; add external pull-up per pin-assignment note. Bias to VBB when used single-ended.
4 VBB output Output reference voltage (~VCC/2, typ 2.03 V at VCC=3.3 V). Used to bias unused input in single-ended mode; place a 0.01 µF decoupling capacitor between VCC and VBB when used. Limit sink/source current to < 0.5 mA. Leave open when not used.
5 GND power_in Ground (0 V) reference for the device.
6 NC unconnected No connect. Leave floating.
7 Q output LVTTL/LVCMOS single-ended output, 24 mA drive. VOH ≥ 2.4 V at IOH = -3 mA; VOL ≤ 0.5 V at IOL = 24 mA.
8 VCC power_in Positive supply, 3.0 V to 3.6 V (nominal 3.3 V). Absolute maximum 3.8 V.
