LTC2857IDD-2#TRPBF

Interface - Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers

The LTC2857IDD-2#TRPBF is an interface-level IC that is primarily used to bridge two different digital logic interface levels that operate on different voltage levels. It is a part of Linear\'s Logic Interface IP group and is classified as an embedded system-level IC. This product is designed to provide users with an efficient way to bridge logic levels, minimize power dissipation in the system, and eliminate costly and space-consuming gate clustering.

Application Field and Working Principle

The application field of the LTC2857IDD-2#TRPBF mainly lies in embedded systems, such as medical and automotive applications, where efficient bridging of logic levels is necessary without compromising on the performance. It is designed to process rapidly low and high logic signals and reduce power dissipation in the system.

The IC integrates two linear IC-level transceivers and a 1A power switch, along with an internal FIFO, to provide automatic switching of low and high logic levels. The FIFO has an input-to-output synchronization which prevents data overflow and provides an interrupt signal if buffer overflow occurs. A low-power semiconductor switch allows for the transition between the two logic levels with minimal power consumption. The control logic inputs that are used to control the switching between the two levels are based on the user\'s specific requirements. In addition, the power switch can be used to switch between the two levels via an external control.

The LTC2857IDD-2#TRPBF is designed with the intention of providing a fully integrated, low-power switching solution. It is designed to provide a robust logic solution that is suitable for a wide range of applications. The IC is also able to integrate within a variety of different architectures, providing an optimum solution for each system.
