I've found that Max3378E can be used to translate the voltage level from 3,3v <=> 5v bidirectionally and it can be replaced by using some transistor circuit. But Max3378E only has 4 bits bidirectional bus and I need minimal 8 bits bidirectional bus in 1 chip, because it's more difficult to me if I must soldering 2 chips than 1 chip in TSSOP packaging (the most difficult part is that I need 16 bits so I must use 4 chips of Max3378E). Is there any level translator chip that have more than 4 bits bidirectional bus in 1 chip, without direction control pin and maybe with the packaging of DIP? Thanks before. Best regards, Tinggo S.
