Applications Information

Power-Supply Decoupling

To reduce ripple and the chance of transmitting incor-

capacitor. To ensure full ±15kV ESD protection, bypass

tors as close to the power-supply inputs as possible.

I2C Level Translation

to the MAX3372E–MAX3379E/MAX3390E–MAX3393E

datasheet.

Unidirectional vs. Bidirectional Level

Translator

The MAX3000E/MAX3001E/MAX3002/MAX3003 bidi-

rectional translators can operate as a unidirectional

device to translate signals without inversion. The

MAX3004–MAX3012 unidirecitional level translators,

on any single data line (see the

Ordering Information.)

These devices provide the smallest solution (UCSP

package) for unidirectional level translation without

inversion.

+1.2V to +5.5V, ±15kV ESD-Protected, 0.1µA,

35Mbps, 8-Channel Level Translators
