riklaunim Posted September 3, 2013 at 11:11 PM Posted September 3, 2013 at 11:11 PM IO-4 bricklet is at 3.3V so I would have to use a logic level converter (I have this one) and provide 5V to the external board on my own. Would that work? IO-16 can do 5V but won't provide 5V without step-down power brick. If I provide 5V to the external device can IO-16 handle 5V logic without the power brick? Quote
borg Posted September 4, 2013 at 07:20 AM Posted September 4, 2013 at 07:20 AM You can use the TXB0108 together with the IO-4. The IO-16 can withstand VDD + 0.6V. That means, if the 5V-rail of the IO-16 Bricklet has a voltage of 4.7V, you should apply a maximum of 5.3V from your external device. Short answer: Yes. Quote
