1 Voltage Translation Clamps ASIA MARKETING DEVELOPMENT Samuel Lin Standard Logic 2012/Q1

Advantage With Voltage Clamp High Speed Translation Direction Control Unnecessary Low Ron for less distortion With 5V Supply, it can level shift 1V to 5V range on the Input/Outputs Bi-directional I2C™ Translation. GTL to TTL/LVTTL Translation Open Drain/Push Pull Interface 2

7 Flexible Bi-Direction

Typical Design Examples Passive Bi-Directional Translator Clamps. Pin “Gate” must use 200k  Pull Up to Vcc, which must be higher than VREF minimum 1V to turn on the FET. VREF would cut-off all A-Port Output to maximum level. A-Port has 5V input tolerant,need pull up when open drain B-Port is flexible to desired Logic Voltage Level which depends on pull up Vcc.
