MAX13058EETI+

MAX13058EETI+ is one of the key components in the MAX family of logic translators and level shifters. This advanced device facilitates easy and efficient communication between two or more systems operating at different voltage levels and on different logic “families.” Some of the key advantages of the MAX13058EETI+ are low-power mode operation, fast switching speed, and built-in EMI reduction.

Logic translators and level shifters are used to bridge the communication gap between two systems operating at different voltage levels, on different logic families and with different data transfer requirements. Commonly found in automotive, industrial, medical and consumer applications, these devices convert the higher voltage levels of a system at one end to the lower voltage levels of a system at the other end. This helps in the communication between two systems without the need for additional circuits. For example, analog signals from sensors operating at 5-12V levels can be converted to lower logic level voltages suitable for digital control.

The MAX13058EETI+ is a 16 channel logic translator/level shifter with a high-side switch and an extremely low quiescent current of only 50nA. It is optimized for interfacing between high-speed data communication systems, such as USB 2.0, high-speed CAN, and other high-speed automotive networks. The device supports voltage levels from 3.3V to 5V and offers a switching speed of 1.2ns. Its push-pull output makes it ideal for applications where noise immunity is important. The MAX13058EETI+ also features built-in EMI reduction for improved signal integrity.

The usual mode of operation of the MAX13058EETI+ is a 3-state bidirectional mode. This allows it to supply a known logic level (high or low) to the output when no input is applied to the device, and also to provide a bridge between two different levels with a low current drain. This type of configuration is often used in industrial, medical and consumer applications, where different voltage logic levels must be bridged together. The device also supports other logic functions, such as Shifting, Inverting, and Exclusive-OR.

The MAX13058EETI+ contains an on-chip pull-up resistor that can be used to actively drive the output when no input signal is applied. This reduces the need for externally adding the resistor. The device also contains an adaptive ESD protection that significantly reduces ESD damage, which increases its reliability. The MAX13058EETI+ can operate from a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 10V, and features a soft start for improved signal integrity.

In summary, the MAX13058EETI+ is a highly reliable 16 channel logic translator/level shifter that offers a fast switching speed, low-power mode operation and built-in EMI reduction. It is ideal for interfacing between high-speed data communication systems such as USB 2.0, high-speed CAN, and other high-speed automotive networks, as well as for bridging different logic levels in consumer, industrial, and medical applications.
