Webinar: Understanding advanced logic translators and level shifters

About the webinar

The demand for systems with lower operating voltages and multiple voltage domains has resulted in new requirements for logic translators and level shift devices. This 2-part online webinar will focus on Nexperia translators for special applications: auto direction sense, multi-voltage translators, I2C and SIM/SD card interfaces. Session 1 will provide an overview of translator technology, product overviews and Nexperia’s strategy and roadmap for these devices. While Session 2 will provide detailed configuration and application information, as well as links to additional resources, including the new Logic Application Handbook.
