1. General description

The 74AXP2T45 is a 2-bit, dual supply transceiver with 3-state outputs that enables bidirectional

level translation. It features two 2-bit input-output ports (nA and nB), a direction control input

(DIR) and dual supply pins (VCC(A) and VCC(B)). Both VCC(A) and VCC(B) can be supplied at any

voltage between 0.9 V and 5.5 V making the device suitable for translating between any of the low

voltage nodes (0.9 V, 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V and 5.0 V). No power supply sequencing is

required and output glitches during power supply transitions are prevented using patented circuitry.

As a result glitches will not appear on the outputs for supply transitions during power-up/down

between 20 mV/μs and 5.5 V/s. Pins A and DIR are referenced to VCC(A) and pin B is referenced

to VCC(B). A HIGH on DIR allows transmission from A to B and a LOW on DIR allows transmission

from B to A.

The device is fully specified for partial power-down applications using IOFF. The IOFF circuitry

disables the output, preventing any damaging backflow current through the device when it is

powered down. In suspend mode when either VCC(A) or VCC(B) are at GND level, both A and B are

in the high-impedance OFF-state.
