Working Principles

The SN74AXC1T45DEAR utilizes a combination of MOSFETs and level-shifting circuitry to achieve bi-directional voltage level translation. The automatic direction sensing feature detects the logic levels on both sides of the translator and adjusts the translation accordingly. When the OE pin is low, the device is enabled, allowing bidirectional data flow. Conversely, when the OE pin is high, the device is disabled, effectively isolating the A-side and B-side logic.
