Re: [AVR-Chat] Re: 5V - 3V interfacing

This has no real advantage that I can see for level
shifting. Rather than this, just use a transistor/fet and a
pullup resistor. With one of these, you still need a pullup
and you have used two transistors. It is still inverting
like a single transistor would be, which makes neither of
these very useful for simple in-line level shifting.
