2-bit logic translator increases design flexibility with wide voltage range
( 01 Jul 2005 )
Fairchild Semiconductor’s FXL2T245L10X is a low-voltage 2-bit logic-level translator that offers wide voltage range, “output enable” (3-state) capability and ultra-compact packaging. Ideal for use in digital circuits to translate from lower to higher logic levels or vice versa, especially 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2.5 and 3.3V, the FXL2T245L10X’s 1.1 to 3.6V range provides a lower voltage threshold than most alternatives, allowing it to better accommodate the low voltage needs of ultra-portable applications, including cellphones, digital cameras and notebooks. Packaged in a space-efficient 10-terminal MicroPak, the device is especially useful for “transparently” adding two additional bits to an existing bi-directional translation path, such as a higher-definition LCD or standalone 2-bit translation solution for USB port data I/Os, including Memory Stick, and other memory modules.
