Bridge 5V I2C devices to your 3.3V Qwiic system with the SparkFun Qwiic 5V Boost, providing boosted power and selectable logic levels for seamless integration.

The SparkFun Qwiic 5V Boost simplifies interfacing 5V I2C devices with the 3.3V Qwiic ecosystem. It takes the 3.3V I2C signals and power from its Qwiic connectors and boosts them to 5V, available on the PTH pins. This is perfect for powering peripherals like RGB LEDs or DC fans commonly used in SPS30, SEN54, and SEN55 air quality and particulate matter sensors.

To make this board more compatible with our Qwiic ecosystem, it features 3V3/5V jumpers that allow you to independently set the logic levels of the I2C signals on the PTH pins. This enables connection to I2C devices that require either 3.3V or 5V for their power and communication needs. Furthermore, the TTL-based logic-level shifting mechanism can also be applied to other communication interfaces, such as serial buses, mirroring the capability of our SparkFun Single Supply Logic Level Converter.

Note

  • Soldering is required to connect a 5V I2C device to this board.
  • The boost circuit on this board is rated to source up to a 100mA at 5V output, with 90% efficiency. However, users should note that this limitation is not only dependent on the load being connected, but also the amount of current that is being sourced to the Qwiic connector system.
