[TI-H] Re: Calc Port Voltage




Shyam,
	Ok scratch the last idea because I found what you need.
Apparently Phillips (creators of the I2C bus) have had the same problem.
The idea I mentioned before would require that the IC you are using be
5V tolerant.  And unless the spec says so I will assume it is not!  The
following link is to an APP note for a single MOSFET, which apparently
will do everything needed.  It even includes protection for the 3V
device from voltage spikes of the 5V device.  Hopefully this will make
design a cinch.  I didn't read the whole appnote and have not looked at
the data sheet for the device but I would not expect it to draw too much
current, although you will probably need to use a 9V battery and make a
voltage divider circuit to supply 3V and 5V to the system.  I am going
to buy a few of these MOSFETs soon for a project I am working on.  Let
me know if you get them, or I will reply once I see how well they work.

Here are the circuits. I just took them from another site cause I was
spending most of my time designing the circuits for the Xe1202. Step
