Output type is open drain or push-pull, accommodating both wired-AND and standard push-pull topologies. Because the part is bidirectional, the same two pins handle both transmit and receive — no extra GPIO for direction control. This simplifies layout on multi-voltage boards where an I2C bus crosses a voltage boundary. ## Package and footprint — 8-VFSOP / 8-VSSOP The PCA9306TDCURQ1 is supplied in an 8-VFSOP package (2.30 mm body width) and the supplier device package is 8-VSSOP. Both refer to the same ultra-small outline package with a 0.65 mm pitch, suitable for space-constrained automotive ECU boards. Surface-mount only. The tape-and-reel option (cut tape also available) aligns with high-volume pick-and-place assembly. ## Temperature range — -45°C to 105°C The extra margin at the cold end and the 105°C upper limit cover automotive cabin, engine-bay-adjacent, and outdoor telecom enclosures where ambient temperatures can spike. The AEC-Q100 qualification adds the stress-tested reliability expected for production automotive builds. The part is ROHS3 compliant.","metaTitle":"PCA9306TDCURQ1 Voltage Level Translator, AEC-Q100","metaDescription":"PCA9306TDCURQ1 is a 2-channel bidirectional voltage level translator with auto-direction sensing, AEC-Q100 qualified, VCCA 1.2-3.3V, VCCB 1.8-5.5V, 8-VSSOP","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Automotive, AEC-Q100","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Interface & Transceivers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Texas Instruments","Series":"Automotive, AEC-Q100","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","Features":"Auto-Direction Sensing","Data Rate":"-","Output Type":"Open Drain, Push-Pull","Channel Type":"Bidirectional","Input Signal":"-","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Output Signal":"-","Package / Case":"8-VFSOP (0.091\\\", 2.30mm Width)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage - VCCA":"1.2 V ~ 3.3 V","Voltage - VCCB":"1.8 V ~ 5.5 V","Translator Type":"Voltage Level","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Number of Circuits":"1","Base Product Number":"PCA9306","Channels per Circuit":"2","Operating Temperature":"-45°C~105°C(TA)","Supplier Device Package":"8-VSSOP"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.1800","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$1.18000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$1.05700","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$1.00320","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.82400","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$0.77032","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.68074","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.53742","currency":"USD"},{"qty":3000,"price":"$0.50700","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/b5f1e30a8d69f86911dc64a3c8c33492.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icboms.com/api/mcp/products/PCA9306TDCURQ1/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is PCA9306TDCURQ1 qualified for automotive applications?","answer":"Yes, the PCA9306TDCURQ1 is part of the Automotive, AEC-Q100 series, meaning it has passed the automotive-grade stress tests required for deployment in vehicle electronics."},{"question":"What is the VCCA and VCCB voltage range for PCA9306TDCURQ1?","answer":"These ranges allow translation between low-voltage cores and higher-voltage peripherals."},{"question":"Is PCA9306TDCURQ1 compatible with I2C?","answer":"Yes.
