Notes to Table 2–8:
(1) To drive inputs higher than VCCIO but less than 4.0 V including the overshoot, disable the I/O clamp diode. However, to drive 5.0-V signals to
the device, enable the I/O clamp diode to prevent VI from rising above 4.0 V. Use an external diode if the I/O pin does not support the clamp
diode.
(2) When VCCIO = 1.8 V, a MAX V device can drive a 1.2-V or 1.5-V device with 1.8-V tolerant inputs.
(3) When VCCIO = 2.5 V, a MAX V device can drive a 1.2-V, 1.5-V, or 1.8-V device with 2.5-V tolerant inputs.
(4) When VCCIO = 3.3 V and a 2.5-V input signal feeds an input pin, the VCCIO supply current will be slightly larger than expected.
(5) MAX V devices can be 5.0-Vtolerant with the use of an external resistor and the internal I/Oclamp diode on the 5M1270Z and 5M2210Z devices.
Use an external clamp diode if the internal clamp diode is not available.
(6) When VCCIO = 3.3 V, a MAX V device can drive a 1.2-V, 1.5-V, 1.8-V, or 2.5-V device with 3.3-V tolerant inputs.
(7) When VCCIO = 3.3 V, a MAX V device can drive a device with 5.0-V TTL inputs but not 5.0-V CMOS inputs. For 5.0-V CMOS, open-drain setting
with internal I/O clamp diode (available only on 5M1270Z and 5M2210Z devices) and external resistor is required. Use an external clamp diode
if the internal clamp diode is not available.
