GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Externally applied voltages, VCC and VL, set the logic levels on either side of the device. Logic signals present on the VL side of the device appear as a high-voltage logic signal on the VCC side of the device and vice-versa. Each input/output (I/O) channel is pulled up to V CC or V L by an internal 30µA current source, allowing the MAX13042E–MAX13045E to be driven by either push-pull or open-drain drivers. The MAX13042E–MAX13045E feature an enable (EN) input that places the devices into a low-power shutdown mode when driven low. The MAX13042E–MAX13045E feature an automatic shutdown mode that disables the part when VCC is less than VL. The state of I/O VCC_ and I/O VL_ during shutdown is chosen by selecting the appropriate part version. (See the Ordering Information/ Selector Guide). The MAX13042E–MAX13045E operate with VCC voltages from +2.2V to +3.6V and VL voltages from +1.62V to +3.2V, making them ideal for data transfer between low-voltage ASIC/PLDs and higher voltage systems.
