The ST2349A is a 4-bit dual supply level
translator which provides the level shifting
capability to allow data transfer in a multi-voltage
system. Externally applied voltages, V
set the logic levels on either side of the device. It
utilizes transmission gate-based design that
allows bi-directional level translation without a
control pin.
The ST2349A accepts a V
and V
from 1.80 to 5.5 V, making it ideal for

data transfer between low-voltage ASICs/PLD
and higher voltage systems. This device has a tristate output mode which can be used to disable
all I/Os.

ST2349ASupplementary notes
3 Supplementary notes
3.1 Driver requirement
The ST2349A may be driven by an open drain or totem pole driver and the nature of the
device’s output is “open drain”. It must not be used to drive a pull-down resistor since the
impedance of the output at HIGH state depends on the pull-up resistor placed at the I/Os.
As the device has pull-up resistors on both the I/O
ensure that the driver is able to sink the required amount of current. For example, if the
settings are V
=5.5V, VL= 4.3 V and the pull-up resistor is 10 kΩ, then the driver must be
CC
able to sink at least (5.5 V/10 kΩ) + (4.3 V/10 kΩ)
requirements of the ST2349A.
3.2 Load driving capability
To support the open drain system, the one-shot transistor is turned on only during high
transition at the output side. When it drives a high state, after the one-shot transistor is
turned off, only the pull-up resistor is able to maintain the state. In this case, the resistive
load is not recommended.
3.3 Power off feature
In some applications where it might be required to turn off one of the power supplies
powering up the level translator, the user may turn off the V
(device is disabled). There will be no current consumption in V
other causes, and the I/Os are in a high-impedance state in this mode.
