The question is more on the hardware connection of the MaxV as the handbook does not have any informtaion on the following:

1) Can the I2C be connected to any I/O pins?

2) The master is a I2C, 5V. The handbook mentioned that Max V can be 5V tolerant with an external resistors and clamped diode. Is there any reference design for this? If not, is it a voltage divider resistors to provide 3.3V to Max V? I managed to find the application note for the 5V tolerant. Is there any recommended external clamping diode?

Hello,

I think I have answered this on my previous response. Can you elaborate your concern?

Thank you.
