2-Bit 100 Mb/s Configurable Dual-Supply Level Translator

The NLSX5012 is a 2-bit configurable dual-supply autosensing bidirectional level translator that does not require a direction control pin. The I/O VCC- and I/O VL-ports are designed to track two different power supply rails, VCC and VL respectively. Both the VCC and the VL supply rails are configurable from 0.9 V to 4.5 V. This allows a logic signal on the VL side to be translated to either a higher or a lower logic signal voltage on the VCC side, and vice-versa.

FEATUREs
• Wide VCC, VL Operating Range: 0.9 V to 4.5 V
• VL and VCC are independent
   − VL may be greater than, equal to, or less than VCC
• High 100 pF Capacitive Drive Capability
• High−Speed with 140 Mb/s Guaranteed Date Rate for VCC, VL > 1.8 V
• Low Bit−to−Bit Skew
• Overvoltage Tolerant Enable and I/O Pins
• Non−preferential Power−Up Sequencing
• Power−Off Protection
• Small packaging: UDFN8, SO−8, Micro8
• These are Pb−Free Devices

Typical Applications
• Mobile Phones, PDAs, Other Portable Devices

Important Information
• ESD Protection for All Pins:
   ♦ HBM (Human Body Model) > 8000 V
