#100417 - Adding more devices for reliablity Responding to: ???'s previous message |
I use HCT for 3V3 outputs and 74LVC4245 for 3V3 inputs so I can not comment on whether that is a problem. In my opinion adding more devices to these "everything in a single chip" LPC devices defeats the very purpose of using these devices for small compact uncluttered reliable products (thats what I thought), in that case why use 3.3V devices and then add more components to make it reliable, might as well use 5V volt micros. Is your 5V stuff not available in 3V3? Actually I am not using much of 5V stuff, only driving a few leds and turning on some relays, and these are isolated from the micros pins with resistors and transistors. Regards, John. |
