I am working on a project and need to convert 12V to 3.3 V. From what I understand, I can use a level shifter or an LDO. I wanted to know the advantages and disadvantages of using one over the other and best situation/scenarios to use each one. Also I believe an LDO is a buck converter( voltage step down only) while a level shifter can be buck or boost.
