The need for logic voltage level translation is prevalent on most electronic systems today. For example, an ASIC might be operating with supply-voltage V CCA, while an I/O device operates with a ...

More undocumented applications for the 555 ‘oscillator:’ Not all applications oscillate as we will see. Most are knowledgeable about common CMOS logic inverters and Schmitt triggers such as the 74HC04 ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Compact, efficient designs are increasingly employing voltages of less than 100 V for applications ranging from vehicles to robots. These <100-V ...

In electronic design, a level translator enables communication between devices whose I/O voltages don’t match. Years ago, the I/O voltages usually matched, because most processor and logic devices ...
