Raspberry Pi 8 channel Level Switching (3.5V to 5V) IO Module
The Raspberry Pi 8-channel Level Switching (3.5V to 5V) IO Module Logic Level Converter offers bidirectional signal conversion between 5V and 3.3V, ensuring compatibility with both 5V and 3.3V devices when interfacing with the Raspberry Pi. With its capability to convert signals from 5V down to 3.3V and vice versa, this module enables seamless integration of sensors and peripherals that operate at different voltage levels with the Raspberry Pi GPIO, which operates at 3.3V. This versatile converter provides 8 channels for high-voltage to low-voltage and low-voltage to high-voltage logic conversion, facilitating smooth communication between devices with different voltage requirements.
How to Use?
In the case of translating between 3.3V and 5V system:
- VCCA/VA connects to the 3.3V power supply
- VCCB/VB connects to the 5V power supply
- GND connects to power negative pole respectively, the two power supply should be common-grounded with each other
- When Ax has TTL 3.3V input, Bx will get TTL 5V output
- When Bx has TTL 5V input, Ax will get TTL 3.3V output
- NO direction control required
Features:
- VCCA Raspberry 3.3 V
- 8 channels bidirectional voltage translation between different logic level, translate between Ax and Bx automatically
- 4 pairs of power supply interfaces, supports more situation
- Use tantalum capacitors for power filter, provides more stability
- VCCB 5V power supply (can be an external 5V power supply)
- GND connect the negative pole

1 x Raspberry Pi 8 channel Level Switching (3.5V to 5V) IO Module.
Raspberry Pi 8 channel Level Switching (3.5V to 5V) IO Overview
The Raspberry Pi 8 channel Level Switching (3.5V to 5V) IO Module is a bidirectional logic level converter designed to interface 3.3V GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pi with 5V peripherals and vice versa. Its eight channels allow you to connect a mix of sensors, modules and actuators that operate at different voltage levels without risking damage to your board.
Key Features of Raspberry Pi 8 channel Level Switching (3.5V to 5V) IO
- Eight bidirectional channels support seamless 3.3V↔5V (or 1.8V–6V) signal conversion
- Four pairs of power interfaces for flexible multi-voltage supply configurations
- Tantalum capacitor on each supply rail for stable voltage filtering and noise suppression
- Compact 38 mm × 31.6 mm PCB fits neatly atop Raspberry Pi or in custom enclosures
- VCCB pin accepts an external 5V supply, reducing load on the Pi’s 5V rail
- Genuine product with fast shipping across India from Zbotic
Applications and Use Cases
- Interfacing 5V ultrasonic distance sensors with Raspberry Pi GPIO
- Connecting 3.3V I²C modules (e.g., environmental sensors) to 5V logic controllers
- Driving 5V relay boards or motor drivers from Pi’s 3.3V outputs safely
- Integrating Arduino or ESP32 breakout boards into mixed-voltage projects
- Level shifting LED strips or digital displays requiring higher voltage signals
How to Use Raspberry Pi 8 channel Level Switching (3.5V to 5V) IO
Begin by wiring the module’s GND pins to the Raspberry Pi ground, then connect the LV side’s VCCA to the Pi’s 3.3V pin and the HV side’s VCCB to a 5V source (either the Pi’s 5V or an external supply). Attach your low-voltage signals to the LVx inputs and corresponding HVx outputs to your 5V devices. The built-in tantalum capacitors will stabilize the voltage rails automatically, allowing immediate bidirectional communication.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this module handle 1.8V logic levels?
Yes. The LV side (VCCA) supports input voltages from 1.8V up to 6V. Simply supply VCCA with 1.8V and the HV side with your desired higher voltage (up to 6V) to shift between those levels.
How many channels can I use simultaneously?
All eight channels are independently bidirectional and can be used at the same time. Each channel pair shares the same VCCA and VCCB rails, so ensure your 5V supply can source enough current for all connected devices.
Do I need pull-up resistors when shifting I²C lines?
This module uses onboard pull-up resistors on each channel for typical I²C speeds. For high-speed bus operation or if you experience signal integrity issues, you may add external pull-ups as needed.
