Sudarshan, You are indeed correct. For 5 V tolerant buffers, the clamp tables would cover a range based on a 5 V supply, to withstand any incoming high-voltage signals. The [Pullup] and/or [Pulldown] tables would cover a range based on the 3.3 V supply. - Michael Mirmak Intel Corp.

Hello All, I want to know what should be the voltage range for the tolerant cells for I-V curves like [Gnd Clamp], [Power Clamp], [Pull up] & [Pull down]. I read it from one of the presentation that, say for a 3.3 V functional 5 V tolerant cell the voltage range is from -5V to +10V. Do what curves this range applies ?. I dont think this range has to be applied for [Pull u] and [Pull down] curves as these are basically driver characteristics and maximum they can operate under 3.3V. So is it only for Clamp curves ? Please let me know your answers. Best Regards, Sudarshan HN NXP Semiconductors/CTO /PLT C-4, Manyata Tech Park, Nagawara Bangalore-560 045 , India.
