General Description
The GTLP8T306 is an 8-bit bus transceiver that provides LVTTL to GTLP signal level translation. The device provides a high speed interface between cards operating at LVTTL logic levels and a backplane operating at GTLP logic levels. High speed backplane operation is a direct result of GTLP’s reduced output swing (<1V), reduced input threshold levels and output edge rate control. The edge rate control minimizes bus settling time. GTLP is a Fairchild Semiconductor derivative of the Gunning Transceiver logic (GTL) JEDEC standard JESD8-3.
   
Features
■ Bidirectional interface between GTL/GTLP and LVTTL
    logic levels
■ Output Edge Rate Control to minimize noise on the
    GTLP port
■ Power up/down/off high impedance for live insertion
■ Standard 245 function
■ CMOS technology for low power dissipation
■ 5V tolerant inputs and outputs on the A-Port
■ Bus-hold data inputs on the A-Port eliminates the need
    for external pull-up resistors on unused inputs
■ LVTTL compatible driver and control inputs
■ Flow through pinout optimizes PCB layout
■ Open drain on GTLP to support wired-or connection
