Adafruit8 Channel Bidirectional Logic Level Converter

Works exactly as specified in the industry standard specs published by Texas Instruments. I used this to drive a solid state relay module from a Raspberry PI and it worked great. No problems. 100% flawless. Thanks again for a great product Adafruit!

This device has very little drive power. If it sees a load much less than 50K, the voltages will drop. Unfortunately, my application required driving a 74HC buffer IC that has 10K pull-down resistors at the inputs. So the 5v outputs drop to about 2.6v creating an intermittent response. Adfruit's documentation is to give you a copy of TI's specification sheet. No mention as to what the function of the OE pin is (it is covered in the TI spec). The lack of effort on Adafruit's part in giving a spec sheet translation and example hookups drops my rating to 3 stars even though it works as TI specifies it.

Gut

Worked perfectly joining my Raspberry Pi to an Arduino Mega.
