WAV Trigger

It says 3.3v/5v signal voltage.

Obvious aside and being new to this… is 6v too much?

I have a 12v power supply and wondering if I can use a voltage divider and be one volt over or do I need to fiddle with some extra components to bring it to 5v.

It needs to be between 3.3 and 5 volts. Any less and it might not work. Any more and you will destroy your board.

A voltage divider will not work, it’s output will vary with load. You need a voltage regulator, something like a 7805 will work.

Ah geeze! One for each trigger? That’s rough. Ok. Thanks!

Not for each trigger, although those can’t exceed 5 volts of that’s what is in the documentation. If you’re able to power whatever is feeding the triggers with 5 volts then you should see a 5 volt trigger output.

Posting your schematic would be helpful.
