NXS0506

SD 3.0-compatible memory card integrated auto-direction control and level translator with EMI filter and ESD protection

The NXS0506 is an SD 3.0-compatible bidirectional dual supply level translator with auto-direction control. It is designed to interface between a memory card operating at 1.7 V to 3.6 V signal levels and a host with a nominal supply voltage of 1.1 V to 1.95 V. The device supports SD 3.0: SDR104, SDR50, DDR50, SDR25, SDR12 and SD 2.0 High-Speed (50 MHz) and Default-Speed (25 MHz) modes. The device has a built-in EMI filter and robust ESD protection (IEC 61000-4-2, level 4).

Features and benefits

  • Supports up to 208 MHz clock rate

  • SD 3.0 specification-compatible voltage translation to support: SDR104, SDR50, DDR50, SDR25, SDR12, High-Speed and Default-Speed modes

  • 1.1 V to 1.95 V host side interface voltage support

  • Auto-direction sensing

  • Low power consumption

  • Integrated pull-up resistors: no external resistors required

  • Integrated EMI filters suppress higher harmonics of digital I/Os

  • Level shifting buffers keep ESD stress away from the host (zero-clamping concept)

  • 16-bumps WLCSP16 package; pitch 0.35 mm

  • 16-terminal XQFN16 package; pitch 0.4 mm

  • Latch-up performance exceeds 100 mA per JESD78 Class II.A

  • ESD protection:

    • HBM: ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001 class 2 exceeds 2000 V

    • CDM: ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-002 class C3 exceeds 1000 V

    • IEC61000-4-2, level 4, contact discharge on all memory card-side pins exceeds 8000 V
    • IEC61000-4-2, level 4, air discharge on all memory card-side pins exceeds 15000 V
  • Specified from -40 °C to +85 °C

Applications

  • Smartphone

  • Mobile handsets

  • Digital cameras

  • Tablet PCs

  • Laptop computers

  • SD, MMC or microSD card readers
