Despite scouring the datasheet, I cannot find the answer to this question: Can you safely apply 5V inputs to Atmel Dataflash devices? (vcc=2.7V) It quotes the "Absolute Max input voltage" as 6.25V, so presumably it won't blow up, but will it work? I'm using a 5V processor and would rather like to not get involved in lots of level shifting. -- Tim Mitchell

It is designed to withstand 5V on inputs... All works flawlessly... regards Dejan

Atmel's document DOC3297 describes using 3V Dataflash devices in 5 volt systems. regards David
