7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

This device is organized as two 4-bit buffers/drivers with separate output-enable (OE) inputs. When OE is low, the device passes data from the A inputs to the Y outputs. When OE is high, the outputs are in the high-impedance state.

Inputs can be driven from either 3.3-V or 5-V devices. This feature allows the use of this device as a translator in a mixed 3.3-V/5-V system environment.

To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down, OE should be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sinking capability of the driver.

This device is fully specified for partial-power-down applications using Ioff. The Ioff circuitry disables the outputs, preventing damaging current backflow through the device when it is powered down.

7.3 Feature Description

  • Wide operating voltage range from 1.65 V to 3.6 V
  • Allows down voltage translation
  • Inputs accept voltages to 5.5 V
  • Ioff feature allows voltages on the inputs and outputs when VCC is 0 V
