NXT4556AUR
SIM card interface level translator
Rev. 1 — 5 December 2023
Product data sheet
1. General description
The NXT4556AUR device is built for interfacing a SIM card with a single low-voltage host side
interface. The NXT4556AUR has three level translators to convert the data, RST and CLK
signals between a SIM card and a host microcontroller. A high speed level translation capable of
supporting class-B, class-C SIM cards. VCC_SIM power-down initiates a shutdown sequence on SIM
card pins in accordance with ISO-7816-3.
The NXT4556AUR is compliant with all ETSI, IMT-2000 and ISO-7816 SIM/Smart card interface
requirements.
