This is how you can connect 5V sensors to 3.3V microcontroller boards. You can make a logic-level converter that will convert 5V signals to 3.3V so that you can safely convert and stabilize input voltages to newer microcontrollers like Arduino and Raspberry Pi.

As you know most of today's newer generation of microcontrollers works on 3.3V unlike the 5V compatible boards like Arduino UNO. This is because all the operations of the Microcontrollers are done using 3.3V signals.
To boards like this, if we connect a sensor or a module that communicates to Arduino in 5V, it will burn the chip. In such cases, we can use a logic level converter to convert
