Bi-directional Logic Level Shifter


VGS (th) = 1.3 V (Threshold Voltage)
Input = 0V ; VGS > VGS(th) ; FET = ON ; Output = 0V
Input = 3.3V ; VGS < VGS(th) ; FET = OFF ; Output = 5V

A simulation of the above circuit can be seen in the YouTube video link.

Hot-Swap Circuits with Inrush Current Limiter

  To provide continuous current sensing and limiting, this hot-swap circuit uses a PNP transistor and a current sense resistor of 0.333R. Wh...
