The NLSX3018 is a 8−bit configurable dual−supply bidirectional level translator without 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. The VCC supply rail is configurable from 1.3 V to 4.5 V while the VL supply rail is configurable from 0.9 V to (VCC − 0.4) V. This allows lower voltage logic signals on the VL side to be translated into higher voltage logic signals on the VCC side, and vice−versa. Both I/O ports are auto−sensing; thus, no direction pin is required.

FEATUREs
• Wide High−Side VCC Operating Range: 1.3 V to 4.5 V

• High−Speed with 100 Mb/s Guaranteed Date Rate for VL > 1.6 V
• Low Bit−to−Bit Skew
• Overvoltage Tolerant Enable and I/O Pins
• Non−preferential Powerup Sequencing
• Small packaging: 4.0 mm x 2.0 mm UQFN20
• This is a Pb−Free Device

Typical Applications
• Mobile Phones, PDAs, Other Portable Devices
