1. Altera MAX Series as Voltage Level Shifters

This design example shows how to use Altera® MAX® II, MAX V, and MAX 10 to implement voltage level shifters between different devices in a mixed-voltage design environment.

The supported Altera devices are an excellent choice to implement voltage level shifters. Their low power make them ideal for voltage level translator applications. Specifically, this applies to multi-level voltage systems where it can be critical to maintain a specific power-on sequence of the multiple voltages involved.
