The MAX13046E/MAX13047E ±15kV ESD-protected
bidirectional level translators provide level shifting for
data transfer in a multivoltage system. The MAX13046E
is a single-channel translator, and the MAX13047E is a
dual-channel translator. Externally applied voltages,
VCCand VL, set the logic level on either side of the
device. The MAX13046E/MAX13047E utilize a transmission-gate-based design to allow data translation in
either direction (V
LVCC
) on any single data line. The
MAX13046E/MAX13047E accept VLfrom +1.1V to the
minimum of either +3.6V or (V
CC
+ 0.3V), and VCCfrom
+1.65V to +5.5V, making these devices ideal for data
transfer between low-voltage ASICs/PLDs and higher
voltage systems.
The MAX13046E/MAX13047E feature a shutdown mode
that reduces supply current to less than 1µA thermal
short-circuit protection, and ±15kV ESD protection on the
VCCside for enhanced protection in applications that
route signals externally. The MAX13046E/MAX13047E
operate at a guaranteed data rate of 8Mbps when pushpull driving is used.
The MAX13046E is available in a 6-pin µDFN package,
and the MAX13047E is available in a 10-pin UTQFN.
Both devices are specified over the extended -40°C to
+85°C operating temperature range.

Level Translation
For proper operation, ensure that +1.65V ≤ VCC≤
+5.5V and +1.1V ≤ VL≤ the minimum of either +3.6V or
(V
CC
+ 0.3V). During power-up sequencing, VL≥ (V
CC
+ 0.3V) does not damage the device. The speed of the
rise time accelerator circuitry limits the maximum data
rate for the MAX13046E/MAX13047E to 16Mbps.
Rise-Time Accelerators
The MAX13046E/MAX13047E have an internal rise-time
accelerator, allowing operation up to 16Mbps. The risetime accelerators are present on both sides of the
device and act to speed up the rise time of the input
and output of the device, regardless of the direction of
the data. The triggering mechanism for these accelerators is both level and edge sensitive. To guarantee
operation of the rise time accelerators the maximum
parasitic capacitance should be less than 200pF on the
I/O lines.
Shutdown Mode
Drive SHDN low to place the MAX13046E/MAX13047E
in shutdown mode and drive SHDN high for normal
operation. Activating the shutdown mode disconnects
the internal 10kΩ pullup resistors on the I/O VCCand I/O
VLlines. This forces the I/O lines to a high-impedance
state, and decreases the supply current to less than
1µA. The high-impedance I/O lines in shutdown mode
allow for use in a multidrop network. The MAX13046E/
MAX13047E have a diode from each I/O to the corresponding supply rail and GND. Therefore, when in shutdown mode, do not allow the voltage at I/O VLto
exceed (VL + 0.3V), or the voltage at I/O V
CC
to exceed
(V
CC
+ 0.3V).
Operation with One Supply Disconnected
Certain applications require sections of circuitry to be
disconnected to save power. When VLis connected and
VCCis disconnected or connected to ground, the device
enters shutdown mode. In this mode, I/O VLcan still be
driven without damage to the device; however, data
does not translate from I/O VLto I/O VCC. If VCCfalls
more than V
TH_L_VCC
below VL, the device disconnects
the pullup resistors at I/O VLand I/O VCC. To achieve the
lowest possible supply current from VLwhen VCCis disconnected, it is recommended that the voltage at the
VCCsupply input be approximately equal to GND.
When VCCis connected and VLis less than V
TH_VL
, the
device enters shutdown mode. In this mode, I/O V
CC
can still be driven without damage to the device; however, data does not translate from I/O V
When VCCis disconnected or connected to ground, I/O
VCCmust not be driven more than VCC+ 0.3V. When V
L
is disconnected or connected to ground, I/O VLmust
not be driven more than VL+ 0.3V.
Short-Circuit Protection
Thermal-overload detection protects the MAX13046E/
MAX13047E from short-circuit fault conditions. In the
event of a short-circuit fault, when the junction temperature (TJ) exceeds +150°C, the device enters shutdown
mode. When the device has cooled to below +140°C,
normal operation resumes.
±15kV ESD Protection
ESD protection structures are incorporated on all pins
to protect against electrostatic discharges encountered
during handling and assembly. The ESD structures
withstand electrostatic discharge in all states: normal
operation, shutdown mode, and powered down. The
I/O VCClines of the MAX13046E/MAX13047E are characterized for protection to the following limit:
•±15kV using the Human Body Model
ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.
Contact Maxim for a reliability report that documents
test setup, test methodology, and test results.
Human Body Model
Figure 2a shows the Human Body Model, and Figure
2b shows the current waveform it generates when discharged into a low-impedance state. This model consists of a 100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage
of interest that is then discharged into the test device
through a 1.5kΩ resistor.
Single- and Dual-Bidirectional
Low-Level Translator
The IEC 61000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and performance of finished equipment; it does not specifically
refer to integrated circuits. The MAX13046E/MAX13047E
help to design equipment that meets Level 4 of IEC
61000-4-2 without the need for additional ESD-protection
components. The major difference between tests done
using the Human Body Model and IEC 61000-4-2 is higher peak current in IEC 61000-4-2 because series resistance is lower in the IEC 61000-4-2 model. Hence, the
ESD withstand voltage measured to IEC 61000-4-2 can
be lower than that measured using the Human Body
Model. Figure 3a shows the IEC 61000-4-2 model, and
Figure 3b shows the current waveform for the ±8kV, IEC
61000-4-2, Level 4, ESD contact-discharge test. The AirGap test involves approaching the device with a charged
probe. The contact-discharge method connects the
probe to the device before the probe is energized.
Applications Information
Power-Supply Decoupling
To reduce ripple and the chance of transmitting incorrect data, bypass VLand VCCto ground with a 0.1µF
ceramic capacitor. To ensure full ±15kV ESD protection, bypass VCCto ground with a 1µF ceramic capacitor. Place all capacitors as close as possible to the
power-supply inputs.
I2C Level Translation
The MAX13046E/MAX13047E level shifts the data present on the I/O lines between +1.1V and +5.5V, making
them ideal for level translation between a low-voltage
ASIC and an I2C device. A typical application involves
interfacing a low-voltage microprocessor to a +3V or
+5V D/A converter, such as the MAX517.
The MAX13046E/MAX13047E are ideal for level translation between a low-voltage ASIC and 1-Wire device. A
typical application involves interfacing a low-voltage
microprocessor to an external memory, such as the
DS2502. The maximum data rate depends on the
1-Wire device. For the DS2502, the maximum data rate
is 16.3kbps. A 5kΩ pullup resistor is recommended
when interfacing with the DS2502.
Push-Pull vs. Open-Drain Driving
The MAX13046E/MAX13047E can be driven in a pushpull or open-drain configurations. For open-drain configuration, internal 10kΩ resistors pull up I/O VLand I/O
VCCto their respective power supplies. See the
Timing
Characteristics
table for maximum data rates when
using open-drain drivers.
PCB Layout
The MAX13046E/MAX13047E require good PCB layout
for proper operation and optimal rise/fall time performance. Ensure proper high-frequency PCB layout even
when operating at low data rates.
Driving High-Capacitive Load
Capacitive loading on the I/O lines impacts the rise time
(and fall time) of the MAX13046E/MAX13047E when driving the signal lines. The actual rise time is a function of
the load capacitance, parasitic capacitance, the supply
voltage, and the drive impedance of the MAX13046E/
MAX13047E.
Operating the MAX13046E/MAX13047E at a low data rate
does NOT increase capacitive load driving capability.
