Overview
The NLSX4373DMR2G is a 2-Bit configurable dual-supply bidirectional auto sensing translator produced by ON Semiconductor. This device does not require a directional control pin and is designed to track two different power supply rails, VCC and VL, which can be configured from 1.5V to 5.5V each. This allows for the translation of voltage logic signals between the VL and VCC sides, making it versatile for various voltage level shifting applications.
