Hi,I havent use any level shifter to interoperate with SIM7000 board. It worked staight away. Also on tge board I cannot see any Zener diodes etc. so probably the chip accepts higher voltage levels and 3.3V is not a problem for it.cheersWysłano z mojego urządzenia Galaxy -------- Oryginalna wiadomość --------Od: Simon Ljungberg notifications@github.com Data: 13.01.2021 09:24 (GMT+01:00) Do: mcore1976/sim7000gpstracker sim7000gpstracker@noreply.github.com DW: Subscribed subscribed@noreply.github.com Temat: [mcore1976/sim7000gpstracker] UART Level Shifter? (#1) Hey, Thanks for this project. Very helpful as a reference as I'm learning to do this myself :) I'm just curious, according to the SIM7000 User Manual the UART interface of the SIM7000 operates at 1.8V, while as far as I can tell the ATMEGA is running at 3.3V. Did you not have to use a level shifter between them to get UART to work properly? Or do you know if the breakout board perhaps has that built in? Best, Simon

Thank you! :) Perhaps I'm having some other issues then.
I managed to get a hold of the documents for the breakout board (just emailed and-global). The user manual states that the UART on the BK is 3.3v! So they have the level shifter built in.
It also says that the BK wants 5-10 VCC (5.0 is recommended).
Just a FYI if you're interested :) Attaching the manual.
thanks !
