General Description
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E 4-channel, bidirectional
level translators provide the level shifting necessary for
100Mbps data transfer in multivoltage systems. The
MAX13042E–MAX13045E are ideally suited for level
translation in systems with four channels. Externally
applied voltages, VCC and VL, set the logic levels on
either side of the device. Logic signals present on the
VLside of the device appear as a high-voltage logic
signal on the VCC side of the device and vice-versa.
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E operate at full speed
with external drivers that source as little as 4mA output
current or larger. Each input/output (I/O) channel is
pulled up to VCC or VLby an internal 30µA current
source, allowing the MAX13042E–MAX13045E to be
driven by either push-pull or open-drain drivers.
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E feature an enable (EN)
input that places the devices into a low-power shutdown
mode when driven low. The MAX13042E–MAX13045E
feature an automatic shutdown mode that disables the
part when VCC is less than VL. The state of I/O VCC_ and
I/O VL_ during shutdown is chosen by selecting the
appropriate part version. (See the Ordering Information/
Selector Guide).
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E operate with VCC volt-
ages from +2.2V to +3.6V and VLvoltages from +1.62V
to +3.2V, making them ideal for data transfer between
low-voltage ASIC/PLDs and higher voltage systems.
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E are available in 12-bump
UCSP™ (1.54mm x 2.12mm) and 14-pin TDFN (3mm x
3mm) packages, and operate over the extended -40°C
to +85°C temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E 4-channel, bidirectional
level translators provide the level shifting necessary for
100Mbps data transfer in multivoltage systems. The
MAX13042E–MAX13045E are ideally suited for level
translation in systems with four channels. Externally
applied voltages, VCC and VL, set the logic levels on
either side of the device. Logic signals present on the
VLside of the device appear as a high-voltage logic
signal on the VCC side of the device and vice-versa.
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E operate at full speed
with external drivers that source as little as 4mA output
current. Each I/O channel is pulled up to VCC or VLby
an internal 30µA current source, allowing the
MAX13042E–MAX13045E to be driven by either push-
pull or open-drain drivers.
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E feature an enable (EN)
input that places the devices into a low-power shutdown
mode when driven low. The MAX13042E–MAX13045E
feature an automatic shutdown mode that disables the
part when VCC is less than VL. The state of I/O VCC_ and
I/O VL_ during shutdown is chosen by selecting the
appropriate part version (see the Ordering Information/
Selector Guide).
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E operate with VCC volt-
ages from +2.2V to +3.6V and VLvoltages from +1.62V
to +3.2V.
Level Translation
For proper operation, ensure that +2.2V VCC
+3.6V, +1.62V VLVCC - 0.2V. When power is
supplied to VL while VCC is missing or less than VL, the
MAX13042E–MAX13045E automatically enter a low-
power mode. The devices will also enter shutdown mode
when EN = 0V. This allows VCC to be disconnected and
still have a known state on I/O VL_. The maximum data
rate depends heavily on the load capacitance (see the
Rise/Fall Time vs. Capacitive Load graphs in the Typical
Operating Characteristics), output impedance of the
driver, and the operating voltage range.
Input Driver Requirements
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E architecture is based on
an nMOS pass gate and output accelerator stages
(Figure 6). The accelerators are active only when there
is a rising/falling edge on a given I/O. A short pulse is
then generated where the output accelerator stages
become active and charge/discharge the capacitances
at the I/Os. Due to its architecture, both input stages
become active during the one-shot pulse. This can lead
to current feeding into the external source that is driving
the translator. However, this behavior helps to speed
up the transition on the driven side.
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E have internal current
sources capable of sourcing 30µA to pull up the I/O
lines. These internal-pullup current sources allow the
inputs to be driven with open-drain drivers as well as
push-pull drivers. It is not recommended to use external
pullup resistors on the I/O lines. The architecture of the
MAX13042E–MAX13045E permits either side to be dri-
ven with a minimum of 4mA drivers or larger.
Output Load Requirements
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E I/O are designed to drive
CMOS inputs. Do not load the I/O lines with a resistive
load less than 25kΩand do not place an RC circuit at
the input of these devices to slow down the edges. If a
slower rise/fall time is required, refer to the MAX3000E/
MAX3001E logic-level translator data sheet.

Shutdown Mode
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E feature an enable (EN)
input that places the devices into a low-power shutdown
mode when driven low. The MAX13042E–MAX13045E
feature an automatic shutdown mode that disables the
part when VCC is unconnected or less than VL.
Applications Information
Layout Recommendations
Use standard high-speed layout practices when
laying out a board with the MAX13042E–MAX13045E.
For example, to minimize line coupling, place all other
signal lines not connected to the MAX13042E–
MAX13045E at least 1x the substrate height of the
PCB away from the input and output lines of the
MAX13042E–MAX13045E.
Power-Supply Decoupling
To reduce ripple and the chance of introducing data
errors, bypass VLand VCC to ground with 0.1µF ceram-
ic capacitors. Place all capacitors as close to the
power-supply inputs as possible. For full ESD protec-
tion, bypass VCC with a 1µF ceramic capacitor located
as close to the VCC input as possible.
Unidirectional vs. Bidirectional
Level Translator
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E bidirectional level trans-
lators can operate as a unidirectional device to trans-
late signals without inversion. These devices provide
the smallest solution (UCSP package) for unidirectional
level translation without inversion.
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.
Use with External Pullup/
Pulldown Resistors
Due to the architecture of the MAX13042E–MAX13045E,
it is not recommended to use external pullup or pull-
down resistors on the bus. In certain applications, the
use of external pullup or pulldown resistors is desired to
have a known bus state when there is no active driver
on the bus. The MAX13042E–MAX13045E include inter-
nal pullup current sources that set the bus state when
the device is enabled. In shutdown mode, the state of
I/O VCC_ and I/O VL_ is dependent on the selected part
version (see the Ordering Information/Selector Guide).
Open-Drain Signaling
The MAX13042E–MAX13045E are designed to pass open-
drain as well as CMOS push-pull signals. When used with
open-drain signaling, the rise time will be dominated by the
interaction of the internal pullup current source and the par-
asitic load capacitance. The MAX13042E–MAX13045E
include internal rise-time accelerators to speed up transi-
tions, eliminating any need for external pullup resistors. For
applications such as I2C or 1-wire that require an external
pullup resistor, please consult the MAX3378E and
MAX3396E data sheets.
