Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TXU0304
Tool/software:
Hi everyone,
In the current setup, the chip has been tested on its own on a breakout board to make a 3V3-level and a 5V-level device communicate and it is not currently working. The 3V3 pins are 5V tolerant and I can confirm that without the level shifter inbetween, the comms are succesful.
In the datasheet it talks specifically about I2C and how due to it being open-drain, the IC is not recommended for that purpose. It does not mention anything about SPI comms which I'm guessing it's due to that type of comms being push-pull.
Can the TXB0108 be used to convert between 3V3 level SPI and 5V level SPI? Are there any ways of accomodating this chip to work in this scenario?
Regards,
Yiannis
