5V-tolerant FPGA? #10

Hi!

in readme you wrote:

All FPGA I/O is 5V tolerant, and can drive 5V TTL.

If it is true then why board uses level shifter?

daglem commented 1 year ago

The FPGA I/O is only available on the pin headers, and there it is 5V tolerant, because of the level shifter.

The FPGA in itself is not 5V tolerant.

May be it's worth to modify readme to All board I/O is 5V tolerant instead of FPGA
