i wanted to know if i can use microcontroller IC T89C5115 for driving circuits like sourcing currents for MOSFETs etc. i'm also thinking of using a Buffer IC 4050 for it. how can i use it and will it be sufficient to protect my microcontroller while driving the circuits. the voltage i require at the output is 8V. thank you.
To my knowledge the CMOS 4050 is a level shifter that provides exactly the protection that you need. Reinhard
