GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADG3301 is a single-channel, bidirectional logic level translator. It can be used in multivoltage digital system applications such as data transfer between a low voltage DSP/controller and a higher voltage device. The internal architecture allows the device to perform bidirectional logic level translation without an additional signal to set the direction in which the translation takes place.
