Abstract Logic level shifting may be required when interfacing legacy devices with
newer devices that use a smaller geometry process. For bidirectional bus
systems like the I

C-bus, such a level shifter must also be bidirectional,
without the need of a direction control signal. The simplest way to solve
this problem is by connecting a discrete MOS-FET to each bus line.
