In January 2012, STMicroelectronics introduced its voltage level translator, which is compliant with the Secure Digital (SD) 13.0 standard.
Features and USP: ST6G3244 couples high speed operations with very low power dissipation, supported with the power down mode. Data integrity is secured through propagation delays, electromagnetic-interference filters and signal conditioning.
The voltage level translator incorporates 15 kV air gap electrostatic discharge protection on the card side. The selectable supply (1.8V or 2.9V), 6-bit bi-directional CMOS-level translator for SD, mini-SD and micro-SD memory cards is offered in the BGA25 package. The ST6G3244 is backward pin-to-pin compatible with most existing SD 2.0 products.
