Product details
Overview
MAX13005EEBE+ from Maxim Integrated is a unidirectional 6-channel voltage-level translator optimized for OD-to-CMOS signal conversion between low-voltage logic domains (VL = +0.9V to +3.6V) and higher-voltage interfaces (VCC = +1.5V to +3.6V), delivering guaranteed 20Mbps data rate at VCC > +1.65V, ±15kV HBM ESD protection on I/OVCC pins, and <4µA quiescent supply current - deployed in portable POS systems and smart-card readers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX13005EEBE+ datasheet, MAX13005EEBE+ pinout, MAX13005EEBE+ application, or MAX13005EEBE+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specifications, confirmed UCSP-16 package mapping, validated bidirectional/unidirectional functional distinction within the MAX13000E–MAX13005E family, and real-world timing behavior under capacitive loading and temperature variation.
Technical Context
The MAX13005EEBE+ implements unidirectional level translation from open-drain (OD) inputs referenced to VL to CMOS outputs referenced to VCC, with dedicated input-stage architecture supporting pullup-driven OD sources up to 15kΩ. Its output stage includes rise/fall-time acceleration circuitry enabling 20Mbps operation when VCC ≥ +1.65V and load capacitance ≤50pF.
It operates across extended industrial temperature (−40°C to +85°C), requires no direction control pin, and features EN-controlled tri-state capability. Input thresholds are VL- and VCC-referenced (VIHL/VILL = 2/3×VL/1/3×VL; VIHC/VILC = 2/3×VCC/1/3×VCC), ensuring robust noise immunity in mixed-supply systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data Rate | 20Mbps guaranteed at VCC > +1.65V - enables high-speed SPI/MICROWIRE interface bridging between ultra-low-voltage ASICs and 1.8V/3.3V peripherals. |
| Supply Range (VL) | +0.9V to +3.6V - supports direct interfacing with sub-1V logic rails including 0.9V, 1.2V, and 1.8V domains. |
| Supply Range (VCC) | +1.5V to +3.6V - compatible with standard I/O voltages including 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V microcontrollers and FPGAs. |
| ESD Protection | ±15kV on I/OVCC pins per HBM - eliminates need for external TVS diodes in handheld and card-reader applications with exposed connectors. |
| Quiescent Current | <4µA IQVCC / <2µA IQVL in shutdown - extends battery life in always-on portable communication devices. |
| Propagation Delay | 20ns max (I/OVL→I/OVCC, VCC=+1.65V, CI/OVCC=50pF) - ensures timing compliance in 20Mbps serial links with tight setup/hold margins. |
| Channel-to-Channel Skew | ±5ns - maintains signal integrity across all six channels in parallel bus translation (e.g., 6-bit display or sensor interfaces). |
Pinout & Package
MAX13005EEBE+ is housed in a 2mm × 2mm, 16-bump UCSP™ (Ultra-Compact Silicon Package) with bottom-side solder bumps - optimized for space-constrained portable electronics and requiring controlled reflow profiles due to fine-pitch interconnect geometry.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| I/OVL1–I/OVL6 | Open-drain-compatible input (VL-referenced) | Accepts 0.9V–3.6V OD signals; requires external pullup ≤15kΩ; no internal termination. |
| I/OVCC1–I/OVCC6 | CMOS output (VCC-referenced) | Drives full-swing logic levels (VOHC/VOLC) to downstream 1.5V–3.6V receivers; supports 20mA transient sink/source. |
| VL | Low-side supply input | Bypass with 0.1µF capacitor; defines logic thresholds for OD inputs; must be ≤ VCC during normal operation. |
| VCC | High-side supply input | Bypass with 0.1µF (min) or 1µF (for full ESD performance); powers output drivers and internal biasing. |
| EN | Enable control input | Active-high (VL-referenced); pulls all I/Os into high-impedance state when low - essential for bus sharing and power sequencing. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for both VL and VCC supplies; must be low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce in multi-channel switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 20Mbps unidirectional OD-to-CMOS translation | Enables high-speed interface bridging without direction control logic - reduces PCB routing complexity and firmware overhead in SPI-based smart-card readers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional level translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TXS0108E | 8-channel, auto-direction sensing, 60Mbps max, 1.65V–3.6V VCCA/VCCB, no OD-input optimization | Requires CMOS drivers on both sides; unsuitable for true open-drain source interfaces like ISO 7816 | Select MAX13005EEBE+ when interfacing with open-drain peripherals; choose TXS0108E only for CMOS-to-CMOS bidirectional use cases. |
| SN74AVC8T245 | 8-channel, direction-controlled, 3.6V max VCC, no sub-1V VL support, no integrated ESD beyond 2kV HBM | Lacks 0.9V VL operation and ±15kV ESD - mandates external protection and cannot interface with latest ultra-low-power SoCs | MAX13005EEBE+ is preferred for portable designs requiring 0.9V compatibility and robust ESD; SN74AVC8T245 suits cost-sensitive industrial boards with 1.8V+ domains only. |

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by MAX13005EEBE+?
The MAX13005EEBE+ guarantees 20Mbps operation when VCC exceeds +1.65V and load capacitance is ≤50pF. At lower VCC (e.g., +1.5V), timing margins degrade; the device remains functional but may not sustain full 20Mbps throughput. Real-world performance depends on driver strength, trace impedance, and capacitive loading - refer to Figures 1a/1b and Table "Timing Characteristics" in the official datasheet for derating curves.
Does MAX13005EEBE+ support bidirectional translation?
No, MAX13005EEBE+ is a unidirectional level translator designed exclusively for open-drain (OD) inputs on the VL side and CMOS outputs on the VCC side (VL → VCC only). Bidirectional operation is reserved for MAX13000E and MAX13003E variants. Attempting reverse signal flow (VCC → VL) on MAX13005EEBE+ will not function and may violate absolute maximum ratings.
What is the recommended pullup resistor value for OD inputs on MAX13005EEBE+?
For reliable 20Mbps operation, the pullup resistor on each I/OVL pin must be ≤15kΩ. Lower values (e.g., 4.7kΩ) improve rise time but increase static power; values above 15kΩ risk timing violations or logic errors at high data rates. The datasheet explicitly prohibits pullups >15kΩ - this limit ensures sufficient drive strength for the internal input stage's threshold detection under worst-case temperature and voltage conditions.
Can MAX13005EEBE+ operate with VL greater than VCC?
During power-up or shutdown sequencing, VL may temporarily exceed VCC without damage - the absolute maximum rating allows VL up to +4V regardless of VCC. However, sustained VL > VCC during normal operation violates the recommended condition (VL ≤ VCC) and risks undefined logic behavior, increased leakage, or accelerated wear-out. Always design supply sequencing so VCC stabilizes before VL ramps fully.
Is the UCSP package of MAX13005EEBE+ lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes, the MAX13005EEBE+ carries the "+" suffix per Maxim's ordering nomenclature, indicating a lead(Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant UCSP-16 package. It meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and requires standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak ≤260°C). No exemptions or alternate material declarations apply - full compliance documentation is available via Analog Devices' product change notices.
