EVAALVUAAILTAIOBNLEKIT
6-Channel, Digital Ground-Level Translator
General Description
The MAX14842 translates digital signals between two
domains that have different ground references of up to
72V. The device features six communication channels,
two bidirectional and four unidirectional. Two of the four
unidirectional channels go in each direction. The device
is powered by two supply voltages that independently
define the logic levels of each ground domain.
The MAX14842 supports guaranteed data rates up to
30Mbps on the four unidirectional channels and up to
2Mbps on the two bidirectional channels. The bidirec-
tional channels have open-drain outputs, making them
suitable for I2C signals. I2C clock stretching and hot
swapping is supported on the bidirectional channels.
Undervoltage lockout ensures that the output pins have
a defined behavior during power-up, power-down, and
during supply transients. For proper operation, ensure
that 0V ≤ (VGNDB - VGNDA) ≤ 72V. Note that GNDB must
be greater than or equal to GNDA.
The MAX14842 is available in a 16-pin TQFN package
and is specified over the -40NC to +125NC automotive
temperature range.
