A TI translator in the same package but with a different architecture; requires careful application review.
TXS0108ERGYR is an 8-bit bidirectional voltage translator from Texas Instruments, ideal for mixed-voltage systems. Finding a substitute requires matching its push-pull/open-drain capabilities, voltage ranges, and data rate.
Candidates may have different voltage limits or internal architecture (e.g., auto-sensing vs. push-pull).
Several candidates exist in the same VQFN-20 package, but footprint details should be confirmed.
Direct replacement for TXS0108ERGYR should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Start with Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates for TXS0108ERGYR, then review parametric alternatives for package and electrical fit.
The main risk is functional incompatibility. Using a translator with a different architecture (e.g., auto-direction sensing) or incorrect voltage ratings can cause system failure.

| Feature / factor | TXS0108ERGYR | PI4ULS5V108ZBAEX | TXB0108RGYR | Alt 3 | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | VQFN-20 | VQFN-20 | VQFN (20) | VQFN-20 / VQFN (20) — Package matches.; TXB0108RGYR: Package matches. | |
| Pinout | Standard 20-pin translator layout | Pin-compatible per datasheet | - | Pin-compatible per datasheet — Pinout appears identical based on datasheet review. | |
| Voltage | VCCA: 1.2-3.6V, VCCB: 1.65-5.5V | 0.9V to 5.0V | 1.2-3.6V / 1.65-5.5V | 0.9V to 5.0V / 1.2-3.6V / 1.65-5.5V — VCCB max is 5.0V, lower than target's 5.5V.; TXB0108RGYR: Voltage ranges match. | |
| Performance | 110 Mbps | >100 Mbps | 100 Mbps | >100 Mbps — Data rate is comparable.; TXB0108RGYR: Data rate is slightly lower. | |
| Manufacturer | Texas Instruments | Diodes Incorporated | - | Diodes Incorporated — Cross-vendor alternative. | |
| Function | Push-pull/open-drain optimized | - | Auto-direction sensing | Auto-direction sensing — Different architecture; not for push-pull/open-drain like target. |
Verified drop-in options for TXS0108ERGYR are limited in the current batch. Review candidates marked Strong match or Datasheet verified, and validate package, pinout, and electrical limits before committing a BOM change.
