Hello Zoidiano,

I'm using that one : Bi-Directional LevelConverterModul 8 canals 1,2...3,6V <> 5V www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/txs0108e.pdf
Its to convert 3V from Fireduino Pins to 5V.

Cheers :-)

Hello, just to let the community know about that question :
I used the level converter mentioned above on a project with High-Frequency pulses (for stepper motors) and I had steploss errors.
Wich means that my steppers motors were moving but not exactely doing the distance they should at very high rpm.

So I found a solution by using another level shifter wich is the : 74HCT 244 N (texas instruments)
I bought one from Segor electronics : http://www.segor.de/#Q=74HCT244N&M=1

74HCT 244 N (DATASHEET) : https://edg.uchicago.edu/~bogdan/dirac/doc/parts/sn74hct244.pdf

This one seems to be accurate enough and I'm not experiencing any steploss error anymore :-)
Cheers
