Electrical Equipment & Systems

Bus Buffer translates I-²C bus levels to 1.xV processors.

Model LTC4301L accepts input data and clock pull-up voltages as low as 1 V and level translates them to standard 3.3-5 V logic rails. It allows card insertion into live backplane without corruption of SDA and SCL lines, while providing capacitive isolation between lines even if respective supplies are at different levels. SDA and SCL pins withstand 10 kV ESD, protecting card from damage due to...
