The NLSX4373 is a 2−bit configurable dual−supply bidirectional auto sensing translator that does not require a directional control pin. The VCC I/O and VL I/O ports are designed to track two different power supply rails, VCC and VL respectively. The VCC supply rail is configurable from 1.5 V to 5.5 V while VL supply rail is configurable to 1.5 V to 5.5 V. This allows voltage logic signals on the VL side to be translated into lower, higher or equal value voltage logic signals on the VCC side, and vice−versa.

FEATUREs
• VL can be Less than, Greater than or Equal to VCC
• Wide VCC Operating Range: 1.5 V to 5.5 V Wide VL Operating Range: 1.5 V to 5.5 V
• High−Speed with 20 Mb/s Guaranteed Date Rate
• Low Bit−to−Bit Skew
• Enable Input and I/O Lines have Overvoltage Tolerant (OVT) to 5.5 V
• Nonpreferential Powerup Sequencing
• Integrated 10 k Pullup Resistors
• Small packaging: UDFN8, SO−8, Micro8
• This is a Pb−Free Device

Typical Applications
• I2C, SMBus, PMBus
• Low Voltage ASIC Level Translation
• Mobile Phones, PDAs, Cameras
