MAX6621AUB+

Translators, Level Shifters Overview

The MAX6621AUB+ is a mixed-signal translator designed to interface between the Processor Event Control Interface (PECI) and the I2C bus. It operates with a single supply voltage ranging from 3 V to 3.6 V. The device supports data rates up to 400 kbps and provides non-inverted output signaling. It is housed in a compact 10-TFSOP or 10-MSOP surface-mount package, suitable for space-constrained applications.
