Maxim MAX3372E-MAX3379E/MAX3390E-MAX3393E Datasheet
This Maxim Integrated datasheet describes the family of +15 kV ESD‑protected level translators that shift logic levels between low‑voltage ASIC/PLD domains and higher‑voltage systems. The devices support bidirectional or unidirectional translation, three‑state output, ultra‑low supply current, and thermal short‑circuit protection.
The document provides absolute maximum ratings, electrical characteristics, timing parameters, typical operating curves, and detailed package drawings for the dual‑ and quad‑channel variants offered in UCSP, SOT‑23‑8, and TSSOP packages.
