The NLSX5014 is a 4-bit configurable dual-supply autosensing
bidirectional level translator that does not require a direction
control pin. The I/O VCC- and I/O VL-ports are designed to track
two different power supply rails, VCC and VL respectively. Both the
VCC and the VL supply rails are configurable from 0.9 V to 4.5 V.
This allows a logic signal on the VL side to be translated to
either a higher or a lower logic signal voltage on the VCC side,
and vice-versa.
The NLSX5014 offers the feature that the values of the VCC and VL
supplies are independent. Design flexibility is maximized because
VL can be set to a value either greater than or less than the VCC
supply. In contrast, the majority of competitive auto sense
translators have a restriction that the value of the VL supply must
be equal to less than (VCC - 0.4) V.
