#170030 - What logic level for "logic level" MOSFETs?
In the Good Ol' Days (sic), "logic-level" meant the 5V "TTL" logic levels.

Nowadays 3V3 and 3V are common for logic - also 2V8, 1V8, etc...

So, when they call a device a "logic-level" FET, is there any general assumption as to what they mean?
Or is it essentially meaningless, and you just have to check the Datasheet?

   My take on it is datasheet time            01/01/70 00:00      
   Don't they specify this in the first place?            01/01/70 00:00      
      No, they don't            01/01/70 00:00

            5V high for TTL            01/01/70 00:00      
         They do , chek this link            01/01/70 00:00      
            Avoid extrapolation from a single sample            01/01/70 00:00      
            I think that shows that they generally don't!            01/01/70 00:00      
               Not really digital - just compatible with            01/01/70 00:00      
         Answered your own question?            01/01/70 00:00      
   It depends...            01/01/70 00:00
