## Description

The SparkFun PCA9306 Level Translator Breakout provides dual bidirectional voltage-level translation for I2C and SMBus lines. It lets you safely connect devices operating at different logic levels — for example, a 3.3V sensor to a 5V microcontroller — without a direction pin. Simply apply your reference voltages and enable the translator. The PCA9306 supports a low-side voltage range of 1.2–3.3V and a high-side range of 1.8–5.5V. The breakout includes a broken-out enable pin and a second ground pin for convenient wiring. Key Features Dual Bidirectional Translation – Two channels for SDA and SCL (or any two signals) No Direction Pin – Automatic bidirectional level shifting Low Side – 1.2V to 3.3V (VREF1) High Side – 1.8V to 5.5V (VREF2) I2C & SMBus Compatible – Open-drain bidirectional translation Enable Pin – Broken out for software control Ideal For Connecting 3.3V I2C sensors to 5V Arduino boards Mixed-voltage I2C bus systems Interfacing between different logic-level devices Any project requiring bidirectional voltage translation Package Contents 1× SparkFun PCA9306 Level Translator Breakout Resources Hookup Guide (SparkFun)
