    Logic Level Converters for Development Boards

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Logic Level Converters.
    Communicate between a development board and other components, such as sensors and actuators, that use digital signals at a different voltage. Connect your high-voltage power source and devices to one side and your low-voltage power source and devices to the other. These converters have four independent communication channels, each of which connects high-voltage devices to low-voltage devices. All channels are bidirectional, converting voltage from high to low and low to high, so they support protocols such as I2C that send data in both directions on a single wire. They’re often used between a 5V DC device and a 3.3V DC device, but will work with any voltages within the listed range. For fast prototyping, solder on headers and plug them directly into a breadboard. For a permanent connection, solder on wires.

    Circuit Board Voltage Regulators

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Circuit Board Voltage Regulators. Circuit Board Voltage Regulators.
    Safely power low-voltage components in circuits with a high-voltage source. These regulators turn high-voltage inputs into lower, more stable outputs.
    Adjustable Output Voltage—Regulators with an adjustable output voltage let you fine-tune the output to best fit your circuit. To adjust the output voltage, connect them to two resistors (not included). The resistance values determine your output voltage.
    Dropout Voltage—Dropout voltage is the minimum required difference between the input voltage and your regulator’s output voltage.

    Voltage-Stabilizing Diodes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Diodes. Voltage-Stabilizing Diodes.
    Power sections of a circuit with a specific voltage. Also known as Zener diodes, these diodes are often used as a reference point in amplifiers and other voltage-sensitive circuits. When installed in reverse, they won’t conduct current until the reverse breakdown voltage is reached. After that point, they maintain the same voltage.
    Reverse Breakdown Voltage—Reverse breakdown voltage is the voltage at which a reversed current will break through the diodes’ internal electrical barrier and flow backward.
    Forward Voltage Drop—Forward voltage drop is the amount of voltage used up while current flows across diodes.

    Diode Assortments

    Control voltage and current in circuits with a variety of diodes.
    Standard, Schottky, and Zener Diodes
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Diodes. Diode Assortments, Standard Diode.
    Standard diodes keep the current in a circuit flowing in one direction. Use them to manipulate signals or to protect your circuit from reverse currents, such as those created when a motor stops or slows down.
    Schottky diodes have faster switching speeds than other diodes, so they’re used to channel current in a single direction in circuits that switch frequently. They’re often found in radios and data processors.
    Zener diodes regulate voltage in a circuit. When installed in reverse, they won’t conduct current until a set voltage is reached. After that point, they maintain the same voltage. Because they provide a stable voltage, they are often used as a reference point in amplifiers and other voltage-sensitive circuits.
