1. General description
The 74AVCH2T45 is a dual bit, dual supply transceiver that enables bidirectional level
translation. It features two data input-output ports (nA and nB), a direction control input
(DIR) and dual supply pins (V
CC(A)
and V
CC(B)
). Both V
CC(A)
and V
CC(B)
can be supplied at
any voltage between 0.8 V and 3.6 V making the device suitable for translating between
any of the low voltage nodes (0.8 V, 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V and 3.3 V). Pins nA and DIR
are referenced to V
CC(A)
and pins nB are referenced to V
CC(B)
. A HIGH on DIR allows
transmission from nA to nB and a LOW on DIR allows transmission from nB to nA.
The device is fully specified for partial power-down applications using I
OFF
. The I
OFF
circuitry disables the output, preventing any damaging backflow current through the
device when it is powered down. In suspend mode when either V
CC(A)
or V
CC(B)
are at
GND level, both A and B are in the high-impedance OFF-state.
The 74AVCH2T45 has active bus hold circuitry which is provided to hold unused or
floating data inputs at a valid logic level. This feature eliminates the need for external
pull-up or pull-down resistors.
