MAX14591
High-Speed, Open-Drain Capable Logic-Level Translator
General Description
The MAX14591 is a dual-channel, bidirectional logiclevel translator with 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 logic signal present on the VL side of the device appears as the same logic signal on the VCC side of the device, and vice-versa.
The device is optimized for the I2C bus as well as the management data input/output (MDIO) bus where often high-speed, open-drain operation is required. When TS is high, the device allows the pullup to be connected to the I/O port that has the power.
