MAX3372E- MAX3379E/ MAX3390E- MAX3393E
±15k V ESD-Protected, 1μA, 16Mbps, Dual/Quad Low-Voltage Level Translators in UCSP
General Description
The MAX3372E- MAX3379E and MAX3390E- MAX3393E ±15k V ESD-protected level translators provide the level shifting necessary to allow data transfer in a multivoltage system. Externally applied voltages, VCC and VL, set the logic levels on either side of the device. A lowvoltage logic signal present on the VL side of the device appears as a high-voltage logic signal on the VCC side of the device, and vice-versa. The MAX3374E/MAX3375E/ MAX3376E/MAX3379E and MAX3390E- MAX3393E unidirectional level translators level shift data in one direction (VL → VCC or VCC → VL) on any single data line. The MAX3372E/MAX3373E and MAX3377E/MAX3378E bidirectional level translators utilize a transmission-gatebased design (Figure 2) to allow data translation in either direction (VL ↔ VCC) on any single data line. The MAX3372E- MAX3379E and MAX3390E- MAX3393E accept VL from +1.2V to +5.5V and VCC from +1.65V to +5.5V, making them ideal for data transfer between lowvoltage ASICs/PLDs and higher voltage systems.
All devices in the MAX3372E- MAX3379E, MAX3390E- MAX3393E family feature a three-state output mode that reduces supply current to less than 1μA, thermal shortcircuit protection, and ±15k V ESD protection on the VCC side for greater protection in applications that route signals externally. The MAX3372E/MAX3377E operate at a guaranteed data rate of 230kbps. Slew-rate limiting reduces EMI emissions in all 230kbps devices. The MAX3373E- MAX3376E/MAX3378E/MAX3379E and MAX3390E- MAX3393E operate at a guaranteed data rate of 8Mbps over the entire specified operating voltage range. Within specific voltage domains, higher data rates are possible. (See the Timing Characteristics table.)
The MAX3372E- MAX3376E are dual level shifters available in 3 x 3 UCSP™, 8-pin TDFN, and 8-pin SOT23-8 packages. The...
