    摘要: A bidirectional voltage translator (102) includes a first port (200/400), a second port (202/402) and a bidirectional translator circuit (208-215/404-408, 410, 412-415) coupled between the first and second ports (200/400,202/402). The first and second ports (200/400,202/402) communicate signals at a first voltage level and a second voltage level, respectively. The second voltage level is different from the first voltage level. When a first port signal input at the first voltage level at the first port (200/400) is detected, the bidirectional translator circuit (208-215/404-408, 410, 412-415) translates the first port signal into the second voltage level at the second port (202/402) and disables translation of a signal at the second port (202/402) to the first port (200/400). When a second port signal input at the second voltage level at the second port (202/402) is detected, the bidirectional translator circuit (208-215/404-408, 410, 412-415) translates the second port signal into the first voltage level at the first port (200/400) and disables translation of a signal at the first port (200/400) to the second port (202/402).

    摘要: This invention describes the design and implementation of a low power CMOS bidirectional I/O buffer that translates low voltage core logic level signals into the highest logic level signals to drive the final output stage which outputs a selectable logic level signal. The invention further translates input signals of a variety of logic levels into low voltage core logic level signals. In either case, AC and DC power consumption is minimized in a mixed power supply environment that requires voltage translation to represent the proper binary logic levels.

    摘要: A transceiver interface device in accordance with the present invention includes features which allow the transceiver to be switched for operation in either a differential or a single-ended mode. First, the output levels of the transceiver's differential line driver are switchable between TTL levels and non-TTL levels with small differential swings. Second, the transceiver's differential receiver is switchable between a differential threshold and a single-ended TTL threshold. Third, while in differential mode, both outputs of the driver may be placed in the high impedance state or active at the same time, but it is also possible to switch to a single-ended mode in which one driver output is in the high impedance state while the other can be switched between being active or being in the high impedance state. Fourth, the transceiver uses the SCSI standard DIFFSENS pin or driver enable signal for switching between differential mode and single-ended mode operation.

    摘要: A bidirectional level shifting interface circuit has first and second I/O ports and an FET with a drain-source channel connected between the first and second I/O ports. The first I/O port is connected to an I/O port of a first digital circuit operating at a relatively low supply voltage, and the second I/O port is connected to an I/O port of a second digital circuit operating at a relatively high supply voltage. This channel passes communication signals in each direction between the first and second digital circuit. A latching circuit comprising a P Channel FET is biased by the relatively high voltage supply, has an output connected to the second I/O port, and has a control input. The interface circuit further comprises an inverter circuit having a control input connected to the second I/O port and an inverted output connected to the control input of the latching FET such that when the second I/O port exhibits a binary one voltage caused by the first digital circuit, the inverted output exhibits a binary zero voltage to activate the P Channel FET to latch the second I/O port at sufficient voltage to drive the second digital circuit at binary one level.

    摘要: In a high speed complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) inter-integrated circuit (IC) chip communication system, transmission line voltage swings between logic high and logic low levels are reduced by defining minimum and maximum bus voltages which lie between CMOS logic levels, thus lowering bus transition and hence data transfer times. The system is versatile, and does not involve typical emitter-coupled logic (ECL) logic levels. Transceivers interfacing between IC chips and the backpanel transmit data in the reduced logic level range on a pre-charged transmission line, and receive and convert data back to CMOS levels. A limiting transistor in the transmitter portion of the transceiver limits logic low level of the transmission line. The receiver portion of the transceiver converts the voltages received to CMOS levels with the aid of a differential (sense) amplifier.
