NLHV18T3244
18-Channel Level Shifter
The NLHV18T3244 is an 18−channel level translator designed for high voltage level shifting applications such as displays. The 18 channels are divided into twelve and two three channel groups, with each group controlled by the inverting inputs SEL1, SEL2 and, SEL3; respectively. The EN input is used to select the ‘ON’ or power saving shutdown modes.
Each channel consists of a high voltage output buffer. The output buffers use N−channel low side and P−channel high side transistors. The output signal on pins OUT1 to OUT18 is pulled by the transistors to the positive high or negative low voltage on the VHx and VLx power supply pins, respectively, depending on the voltage of the inverting pins.
