Product details
Overview
MAX13005EEBE+T from Maxim Integrated is a 6-channel unidirectional CMOS-to-CMOS level translator supporting 20Mbps data rate at VCC > +1.65V, with ±15kV HBM ESD protection on I/OVCC pins, 0.9V–3.6V VL and 1.5V–3.6V VCC supply ranges, and enable-controlled tri-state operation - used in SPI/MICROWIRE interfaces between low-voltage ASICs and 3.3V systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX13005EEBE+T datasheet, MAX13005EEBE+T pinout, MAX13005EEBE+T application, or MAX13005EEBE+T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping to 16-bump UCSP (2mm × 2mm), real-world timing behavior under capacitive load, and validated alternative options for multivoltage signal translation in portable communication and smart-card reader designs.
Technical Context
The MAX13005EEBE+T implements unidirectional level shifting from VL-side inputs (CMOS or open-drain compatible) to VCC-side CMOS outputs, with input thresholds at 1/3×VL and 2/3×VL on VL side, and 1/3×VCC and 2/3×VCC on VCC side. It lacks bidirectional auto-sensing logic and requires explicit directionality: signals flow only VL → VCC.
Its architecture includes rise/fall-time accelerators optimized for 20Mbps operation when VCC ≥ +1.65V and load capacitance ≤50pF, with propagation delay as low as 20ns (I/OVL→I/OVCC) and channel-to-channel skew ±5ns. EN input controls full I/O tri-state with shutdown supply current ≤20µA at +85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data Rate | 20Mbps guaranteed when VCC > +1.65V - enables high-speed SPI clock domains between 1.2V/1.8V controllers and 3.3V peripherals. |
| Supply Range (VL) | +0.9V to +3.6V - supports direct interface with sub-1V logic rails including modern ultra-low-power microcontrollers. |
| Supply Range (VCC) | +1.5V to +3.6V - compatible with standard 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V system buses without external regulators. |
| ESD Protection | ±15kV on I/OVCC pins per HBM - eliminates need for external TVS diodes in handheld POS and smart-card reader PCB layouts. |
| Quiescent Current | <4µA IQVCC, <2µA IQVL at +25°C - extends battery life in always-on portable communication devices. |
| Propagation Delay | 20ns max (I/OVL→I/OVCC), 20ns max (I/OVCC→I/OVL) - ensures timing closure in 50MHz SPI master-slave links with ≤50pF trace loading. |
| Tri-State Leakage | ≤1µA at +85°C with EN = GND - prevents unintended signal coupling during sleep mode in multi-drop bus architectures. |
Pinout & Package
MAX13005EEBE+T is packaged in a 2mm × 2mm, 16-bump UCSP (Ultra-Compact Silicon Package) with bottom-side solder bumps. This RoHS-compliant, lead-free package supports fine-pitch PCB assembly and provides thermal performance suitable for portable applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| I/OVL1–I/OVL6 | VL-referenced input/output (OD/CMOS compatible) | Accepts 0.9V–3.6V logic; internal threshold at 1/3×VL and 2/3×VL - interfaces directly with open-drain drivers or CMOS sources without external biasing. |
| I/OVCC1–I/OVCC6 | VCC-referenced CMOS output | Drives 3.3V/2.5V/1.8V loads with VOHC = VCC−0.25V and VOLC = 0.25V @ 20µA - ensures noise margin >0.7V in 3.3V systems. |
| VL | Low-voltage domain supply | Bypass with 0.1µF capacitor; must be ≤ VCC during normal operation but tolerates VL > VCC during power sequencing. |
| VCC | High-voltage domain supply | Bypass with 0.1µF (min), 1µF recommended for full ESD robustness; powers all I/OVCC buffers and internal logic. |
| EN | Enable control input | Active-high referenced to VL; pulls all I/Os into high-impedance state when low - enables dynamic bus sharing in multi-peripheral systems. |
| GND | Common reference | Single ground plane required; no separate VL/GND or VCC/GND - simplifies layout and avoids ground bounce in mixed-supply designs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 20Mbps unidirectional translation | Guaranteed speed at VCC > +1.65V and CI/O ≤50pF - meets timing requirements of high-throughput SPI flash and sensor interfaces. |
| ±15kV HBM ESD on I/OVCC | Eliminates need for discrete ESD protection on VCC-side signal lines - reduces BOM count and board area in space-constrained portable designs. |
| 0.9V VL minimum operation | Direct compatibility with newest sub-1V ASICs and SoCs - avoids level-shifter cascading and associated latency/power penalties. |
| Enable-controlled tri-state | Full I/O isolation with EN = GND; leakage ≤1µA at +85°C - enables hot-plug capability and shared-bus arbitration in modular systems. |
| Open-drain input compatibility | Supports OD drivers on VL side with pull-up ≤15kΩ - allows seamless integration with I²C-like control lines and interrupt signals. |

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, 3.3V-only VCCA/VCCB; no sub-1V VL support; 60Mbps max; no integrated ESD | Requires external ESD protection; incompatible with 0.9V/1.2V ASICs; better for high-pin-count 3.3V↔3.3V isolation | Select when higher channel count and speed outweigh ultra-low-VL needs and ESD integration. |
| SN74AVC4T245 | 4-channel, dual-supply (1.2V–3.6V), direction pin required, no ESD rating, 300Mbps max | Needs direction control logic; lacks HBM-rated protection; suited for FPGA-to-ASIC interconnect with tight timing budgets | Choose for bidirectional, high-speed FPGA I/O expansion where board-level ESD is already implemented. |
Compared with TXS0108E and SN74AVC4T245, MAX13005EEBE+T uniquely delivers guaranteed 20Mbps operation down to 0.9V VL with integrated ±15kV HBM protection - making it the only drop-in solution for battery-powered smart-card readers requiring both ultra-low-voltage compatibility and field-ready ESD robustness.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by MAX13005EEBE+T?
The MAX13005EEBE+T guarantees 20Mbps operation when VCC exceeds +1.65V and load capacitance is ≤50pF. At lower VCC (e.g., +1.5V), timing degrades to 230kbps. Real-world performance depends on driver strength, trace capacitance, and supply stability - confirmed by Figures 1a/1b and Table "Maximum Data Rate" in the official datasheet.
Does MAX13005EEBE+T support bidirectional translation?
No, MAX13005EEBE+T is strictly unidirectional: signals translate only from VL-side inputs to VCC-side outputs (VL → VCC). Bidirectional operation is exclusive to MAX13000E and MAX13003E variants. Attempting reverse signal flow may result in undefined output states or increased propagation delay.
Can MAX13005EEBE+T interface with open-drain drivers?
Yes - MAX13005EEBE+T accepts open-drain inputs on the VL side. It requires an external pull-up resistor ≤15kΩ on each VL-side line. The device interprets the OD signal using its 1/3×VL and 2/3×VL thresholds, then drives clean CMOS outputs on the VCC side - confirmed in "Input-Driver Requirements" and Pin Descriptions sections.
What package type is used for MAX13005EEBE+T?
MAX13005EEBE+T uses a 2mm × 2mm, 16-bump UCSP (Ultra-Compact Silicon Package) with bottom-side solder bumps. This RoHS-compliant, lead-free package is documented in the "Ordering Information" table and "Pin Configurations" diagram - distinct from the TSSOP option used by MAX13000EEUE+.
How does the EN pin function on MAX13005EEBE+T?
The EN pin on MAX13005EEBE+T is an active-high enable referenced to VL. When pulled low (GND), all 12 I/Os enter high-impedance tri-state with leakage ≤1µA at +85°C. When driven high to VL, normal translation resumes. This enables dynamic bus arbitration and power-gating in multi-peripheral systems - detailed in "Enable Output Mode" section.
