Using an open drain buffer as a logic level step down converter
I'm trying to convert a 3V3 UART to 1V8 UART with an open drain buffer, but the output of the buffer is always high.
See the schematic below for the circuit. On the input to the buffer, there is a 0V -...

Unidirectional level shifter 1.8-5V -> 3.3V
I'm looking for a circuit/IC to shift logic levels between 1.8/3.3/5V and 3.3V.
This is to connect various devices via UART to the ESP8266. As such, I only need unidirectional translation - the ...

Would this circuit interface be a safe interface between full duplex and half-duplex UARTs of different logic levels? [duplicate]
I'm primarily a SW developer who dabbles with electronics. I needs to interface my SoC's HW full-duplex UART with an SDI-12 compliant sensor, without burning either of them and hopefully without ...

Connect to LIN bus with logic level shifter as transceiver
Is it good idea to connect my microcontroller to LIN bus with logic level shifter (5 <=> 12 V) instead of factory LIN transceiver (MCP2003, TJA1020, etc.)?
As I understand, LIN transceiver just ...

Preventing overvoltage on serial pin
I am trying to send data through serial from a 3.3v Arduino to a 5v Arduino. I assume I can't just connect the 3.3v tx to the 5v rx because, when I program the 5v one I am assuming it will send 5v ...

Component recognition from marking code
I need help to recognize a dead component from a lab instrument control board. It is part of a TTL-serial interface, arguably a logic gate or some level shifter, in a TSSOP-14 package.
You can see ...

Max rx input voltage on FT232rl
The data sheet states:
"Integrated 3.3V level converter" on the UART and CBUS pins. (https://cdn.sparkfun.com/datasheets/BreakoutBoards/DS_FT232R.pdf).
I just want to confirm that means it's rx pin ...

Logic low not low enough
I'm having an issue where the "low" level being output from one device isn't low enough for the device on the other end to interpret it as such. I'm guessing I'm not the first person to have this ...

Arduino <-> BBB UART issues using bi-directional level converter (5v to 3.3v)
I am having a strange issue interfacing between an Arduino and BeagleBoneBlack over UART.
The Arduino is 5v logic, and the BBB is 3.3v logic, so I'm using a bi-directional logic level converter from ...
