MAX13003E

The MAX13000E–MAX13005E 6-channel level translators provide the level shifting necessary to allow data transfer in multivoltage systems. Externally applied voltages, V_CC and V_L, set the logic levels on either side of the device. Logic signals present on the V_L side of the device appear as higher voltage logic signals on the V_CC side of the device, and vice-versa.

The MAX13000E–MAX13005E feature a low V_CC and V_L quiescent supply current less than 4µA. The MAX13000E–MAX13005E also have ±15kV ESD protection on the I/O V_CC side for greater protection in applications that route signals externally. The ESD protection is specified using the Human Body Model (HBM). The MAX13000E/MAX13001E/MAX13002E operate at a guaranteed 230kbps data rate. The MAX13003E/MAX13004E/MAX13005E operate at a guaranteed 20Mbps data rate when V_CC > +1.65V.

The MAX13000E/MAX13003E are bidirectional level translators, allowing data translation in either direction (V_L V_CC) on any single data line without a DIRECTION input. The MAX13001E/MAX13002E/MAX13004E/MAX13005E unidirectional level translators level shift data in one direction (V_L V_CC or V_CC V_L) on any single data line. The MAX13001E/MAX13002E/MAX13004E/MAX13005E unidirectional translators' inputs have the capability to interface with both CMOS and open-drain (OD) outputs. For more information see the Ordering Information, Selector Guide, and the Input-Driver Requirements sections in the full data sheet.

The MAX13000E–MAX13005E operate with +0.9V to +3.6V V_L voltages and +1.5V to +3.6V V_CC voltages. The MAX13000E–MAX13005E are available in 16-bump UCSP™ and 16-pin TSSOP packages, and are specified over the extended -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range.
