[0012] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the utility model, not all embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the utility model described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0013] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model claimed for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0014] Figure 1-Figure 2 A specific embodiment of the utility model is a level conversion circuit for communication between an MCU and a NB module. Figure 1 As shown, the MCU and NB module communication level conversion circuit provided in this embodiment is used for the communication between the MCU with a 3.3V voltage and the NB module with a 1.8V TTL level voltage, and the TTL voltage of the MCU is different from the TTL voltage of the NB module, the TTL voltage of the MCU is 3.3V, and the TTL voltage of the NB module is 1.8V. This embodiment uses this TTL communication level conversion circuit to achieve communication between different voltages of the MCU and the NB module.

[0015] like Figure 2As shown, the TTL communication level conversion circuit provided in this embodiment includes a resistor R1, a resistor R2, a resistor R3, a capacitor C1, a diode, and a transistor Q1, wherein one end of the resistor R1 is connected to the RXD end of the NB module, and the other end is connected to a 1.8V power supply, and the resistor R1 is connected to the anode of the diode D1; it can be seen that the resistor R1 plays a role of pulling up the level, and the diode is unidirectionally turned on, so that the level of the RXD of the NB module changes between 0 and 1.8V. In addition, one end of the resistor R2 is connected to 3.3V, and the other end is connected to the collector of the transistor Q1 and the RXD end of the MCU; the emitter of the transistor Q1 is connected to the TXD end of the NB module; one end of the resistor R3 is connected to 1.8V, and the other end is connected to the base of the transistor Q1, and the capacitor C1 is connected in parallel to the two ends of the resistor R3 as a filter capacitor.

[0016] The working state of the above TTL communication level conversion circuit is described as follows:

[0017] The TXD end of the MCU sends "1", that is, it outputs a high level of 3.3V. The cathode voltage of the diode D1 is greater than the anode voltage, and the diode is reversely cut off. The voltage of the RXD end of the NB module is 1.8V after the pull-up resistor R1, that is, "1" is received.

[0018] The TXD end of the MCU sends "0", that is, the output is low level, the cathode of the diode is 0V, and the voltage of the anode through the pull-up resistor R1 is 1.8V. At this time, the diode is forward-conducted, and the voltage of the RXD end of the NB module will be low level, that is, "0" is received.

[0019] The TXD of the NB module sends "1", that is, outputs a high level. The emitter voltage and base voltage of transistor Q1 are equal, transistor Q1 is not turned on, and the RXD voltage of the MCU will receive a high level of 3.3V through the pull-up resistor R2, that is, it receives "1".

[0020] The NB module sends "0", the base voltage of the transistor is 1.8V greater than the emitter voltage, the transistor Q1 is turned on, the collector voltage of the transistor is low, and the MCU will receive "0".

[0021] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Other modifications or equivalent substitutions made to the technical solution of the utility model by ordinary technicians in this field should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
