MAX3393EEUD+

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MAX3393EEUD+ is a unidirectional voltage level translator manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates with VCC supply voltages ranging from +1.65V to +5.5V and VL supply voltages from +1.2V to +5.5V. The device supports data rates up to 16Mbps under specific voltage conditions, with an 8Mbps guaranteed rate across the full operating range. It features ±15kV ESD protection on I/O VCC lines, thermal short-circuit protection, and a three-state output mode that reduces supply current to less than 1μA. The component is housed in a 14-pin TSSOP package.

Translators, Level Shifters Feature Summary

• Unidirectional level translation between low-voltage and high-voltage logic domains
• Integrated ±15kV ESD protection on I/O VCC lines for external signal routing
• Three-state output mode enabling multidrop network applications with ultra-low standby current
• Thermal short-circuit protection automatically forces the device into three-state mode during fault conditions

• SPI, MICROWIRE, and I2C Level Translation
• Low-Voltage ASIC Level Translation
• Smart Card Readers
• Cell-Phone Cradles
• Portable POS Systems

Translators, Level Shifters Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's environmental declaration. Ensure the sourcing channel provides valid traceability for Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated components. Check for any specific handling requirements related to electrostatic discharge protection during storage and assembly.

Translators, Level Shifters Selection Notes

Select this component when unidirectional data transfer is required between systems with different voltage domains. Verify that the application voltage ranges fall within the specified VCC and VL limits. Consider the 16Mbps maximum data rate capability if operating within the restricted voltage windows defined in the timing characteristics. Evaluate the need for three-state functionality if bus contention management is necessary.

Translators, Level Shifters Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX3372E–MAX3393E family of ESD-protected level translators. It shares functional similarities with other members of the series but is distinguished by its unidirectional data flow configuration. The MAX3393E variant specifically offers quad channels in compact packages like UCSP and TSSOP, designed for space-constrained portable electronics and communication devices requiring reliable voltage shifting.
