3 to 5V Interface

Interfacing the SN65HVD888 to a 3V controller is easy. Because the 5V logic inputs of the transceiver accept 3V input signals they can be directly connected to the controller I/O. The 5V receiver output, R, however must be level-shifted by a Schottky diode and a 10k resistor to connect to the controller input (see Figure 8-4). When R is high, the diode is reverse biased and the controller supply potential lies at the controller RxD input. When R is low, the diode is forward biased and conducts. In this case only the diode forward voltage of 0.2V lies at the controller RxD input.
