General Description

The LVX14 contains six inverter gates each with a Schmitt trigger input. They are capable of transforming slowly changing input signals into sharply defined, jitter-free output signals. In addition, they have a greater noise margin than conventional inverters.

The LVX14 has hysteresis between the positive-going and negative-going input thresholds (typically 1.0V) which is determined internally by transistor ratios and is essentially insensitive to temperature and supply voltage variations.

The inputs tolerate voltages up to 7V allowing the interface of 5V systems to 3V systems.

Features

■ Input voltage level translation from 5V to 3V

■ Ideal for low power/low noise 3.3V applications

■ Guaranteed simultaneous switching noise level and
