Toshiba Unveils 5V CMOS ICs For Compact Mobile Applications
Toshiba Corporation has revealed a new series of CMOS multi-function gate logic devices that support 1.65V to 5V systems.
They are housed in small packages suitable for compact mobile devices such as mobile phones, smartphones, tablet PCs, digital cameras and digital video cameras.
Multifunction gate logic ICs allows users to select one from multiple gate functions, depending on the processing status of input signals. The new SZ series, based on Toshiba's existing low voltage drive multi-function gate logic SP series, extends support to 5V systems. What's more, the device features power down protection function for all input pins.
Also added to the line-up is the SZT Series, a TTL-input-type device that secures level translation from low-voltage systems. A Schmitt trigger circuit is used for all input. The new products are in small MP6 packages (1.0mm x 1.45mm x 0.55mm) that support the requirements of small mobile devices.
Samples will be available in January with mass production scheduled to start in March 2013.
