Product details
Overview
ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 from Analog Devices is a 4-channel bidirectional logic level translator designed for multivoltage digital systems. It operates with VCCA from 1.15 V to 5.5 V and VCCY from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, supports −55°C to +125°C military temperature range, delivers up to 60 Mbps data rate (A→Y), and features no direction pin-enabling seamless SPI/MICROWIRE interface translation between low-voltage controllers and higher-voltage peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 datasheet, ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 pinout, ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 application, or ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional voltage translation without direction control, EN-enabled three-state operation, TSSOP-14 packaging for aerospace-grade reliability, and verified performance across 1.15–5.5 V dual-supply configurations in defense-qualified systems.
Technical Context
The ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 implements passive FET-based bidirectional translation architecture, eliminating need for external direction control signals. Its internal pass-gate structure enables automatic signal flow reversal based on relative voltage levels at A and Y sides, with VCCA always required to be ≤ VCCY.
Enable (EN) is referenced to VCCA and controls high-impedance state on both A and Y I/O banks simultaneously. The device maintains channel-to-channel skew ≤ 2 ns and part-to-part skew ≤ 4 ns under 2.5 V–3.3 V supply conditions, supporting deterministic timing in synchronous serial interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Voltage Range (VCCA) | 1.15 V to 5.5 V - sets logic thresholds for A-side I/Os; must be ≤ VCCY for correct operation |
| Voltage Range (VCCY) | 1.65 V to 5.5 V - sets logic thresholds for Y-side I/Os; defines upper bound of compatible host systems |
| Max Data Rate | 60 Mbps (A→Y, 2.5 V–3.3 V) - supports high-speed SPI clocking up to ~30 MHz SCLK with margin |
| Propagation Delay | 4–15 ns (Y→A/A→Y) - ensures sub-20 ns round-trip latency for time-critical bidirectional protocols |
| Quiescent Current | <5 µA - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or always-on defense subsystems |
| Operating Temp | −55°C to +125°C - qualified per AQEC standard for embedded avionics, radar, and space-qualified electronics |

FAQ
What is the minimum operating voltage for VCCA on the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7?
The ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 supports VCCA as low as 1.15 V, enabling direct interfacing with advanced ultra-low-voltage ASICs and processors. This minimum is validated across the full −55°C to +125°C temperature range and is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and DC Characteristics tables of the official ADG3304-EP Rev. A datasheet. Operation below 1.15 V is not guaranteed and may result in undefined logic behavior or increased leakage.
Does the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 require a direction control signal?
No, the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 does not require a direction control signal. Its internal pass-gate architecture enables automatic bidirectional translation: signals driven from the A side appear translated on the Y side, and vice versa-without external direction pin management. This simplifies PCB layout and firmware design, especially in SPI and MICROWIRE applications where direction toggling would otherwise add timing complexity.
What is the function of the EN pin on the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7?
The EN pin on the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 is an active-high enable input referenced to VCCA. When pulled low, it places all A-side (A1–A4) and Y-side (Y1–Y4) I/O terminals into a high-impedance state-effectively disconnecting both sides of the translator from their respective buses. This feature supports bus sharing, hot-swap isolation, and power sequencing in multi-peripheral systems.
Is the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 pin-compatible with the commercial-grade ADG3304BRUZ?
No, the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 is not pin-compatible with the commercial ADG3304BRUZ. While both use 14-lead TSSOP packages, the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 has NC pins at positions 6 and 9, whereas the ADG3304BRUZ uses those pins for VCCA and GND respectively. This difference reflects distinct internal routing and enhanced product layout constraints-making direct substitution mechanically and electrically invalid without board redesign.
What packaging and compliance certifications apply to the ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7?
The ADG3304SRU-EP-RL7 is supplied in a 14-lead TSSOP (RU-14) package compliant with JEDEC MO-153-AB-1. It is an Enhanced Product qualified to AQEC standards, featuring controlled manufacturing baseline, single fabrication/assembly/test site, full traceability, and military temperature range (−55°C to +125°C). It is not RoHS-compliant by default; the RoHS variant is ADG3304SRUZ-EP-RL7.
