Unidirectional Down Translation
For unidirectional clamping (higher voltage to lower voltage), the G
REF
input must be connected to D
REF
and both
pins pulled to the higher-side V
CC
through a pullup resistor (typically 200 kW). A filter capacitor on D
REF
is
recommended. Pullup resistors are required if the chipset I/Os are open drain. The opposite side of the reference
transistor (S
REF
) is connected to the processor core power-supply voltage. When D
REF
is connected through a
200-kW resistor to a 3.3-V to 5.5-V V
CC
supply and S
REF
is set between 1 V to V
CC
– 1.5 V, the output of each Sn
has a maximum output voltage equal to S
REF
.
