I'm looking to use a Teensy LC to controll an old 5V logic chip which is something I've never done before. The target chip has got 8 inputs and no outputs back to the Teensy (so I'm only 'writing' to the chip not 'reading' from it) so as far as I'm aware I need a uni-directional level shifter.
Would the 74HC244N be an appropriate chip to do this, if I feed it 3.3V on the inputs and give it 5V in Vcc will it punt out 5V signal on the outputs? OR have I got completely the wrong end of the stick?
