Uart Port Voltage

Looking at the EZB spec sheet the UART TTL Voltage Level (input/output) is listed at 3.3 volts.

I am going to connect that port to a device that uses 5V TTL for communicating via serial.

I believe I would have to use a bidirectional logic level converter.

Am I correct?

Thanks

@DJ

So is my understanding correct that the UART 0 port tx and rx pins are 5 volt tolerant or are you only referring to the digital/adc signal pins?

Thanks

Keep in mind that D.J. is talking ONLY about the Signal pins.
