8-channel Bi-directional Logic Level Converter TXB0108 Category_Instruments/Instruments accessories Typical maximum continuous output current:Because the Arduino (and Basic Stamp) are 5V devices, and most modern sensors, displays, flashcards, and modes are 3. 3V only, many makers find that they need to perform level shifting conversion to protect the 3. 3V device from 5V. Although one can use resistors to make a divider, for high speed transfers, the resistors can add a lot of slew and cause havoc that is tough to debug. For that reason, we like using 4050 74LVC245 series and similar logic
