Hello people,
I am using the ALTERA DE0-Nano board mounted on one of my custom boards and I want it to accept a signal coming from an HFBR-2528Z receiver. The circuit of the receiver can be found on page 6 of the datasheet http://www.avagotech.com/docs/AV02-1504EN.
My problem is that I need to bring down the voltage of the receiving signal from 5V to 3V3 so that it can be used from the FPGA.
The receiving signal frequency will be at maximum 10MHz.
Comments:
-
I do not think that I can use 3V3 as the supply to the optoreceiver (as stated in the datasheet).
-
I was thinking of using a MOSFET after the output of the optoreceiver to act as my levelshifter but that would create a Low-pass filter.
-
I was thinking of using a resistive voltage divider but if the input of the FPGA is capacitive that would also create a low pass filter.
-
Maybe a solution would be to use a combination of resistive and capacitive voltage divider, but I am not sure of the values…
Regards
