1.65V–3.6V supply — the mixed-voltage bus bridge
That voltage range is the headline decision: it directly answers whether this part works with 1.8V logic (yes) and 3.3V logic (yes), without needing a separate level shifter.
Industrial temp and active lifecycle
ROHS3 compliant, no exemption issues for EU markets.
20-SOIC footprint — board-level fit
The wide SOIC body gives good visual inspection access and hand-solderability for prototyping, while still being pick-and-place friendly for production.
