8.1 Application Information

The TXGS441-SEP is used for level translation, enabling communication between devices or systems operating at different interface and ground voltages. The TXGS441-SEP device is ideal for use in applications where a push-pull driver is connected to the data inputs. Figure 8-1 is an example of two systems that translate from 1.8V to 3.3V across a SPI interface while also seeing a ground shift of -3V on GNDB while GNDA is at 0V. The ground shift of 3V is from the noisy power ground of the Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC).
