The Supertex An adaptive threshold circuit is used to set the level translator switch threshold to the average of the input logic 0 and logic 1 levels. The level translator uses a proprietary circuit, which provides DC coupling together with high-speed operation. The output stage of the MD1822 has separate power connections enabling the output signal L and H levels to be chosen independently from the supply voltages used for the majority of the circuit.
