VBAT_SW_EN , 5V Tolerant?

All,

1.) On the CC3000 I am looking closely at the VBAT_SW_EN.

2.) The datasheet says the voltage level for this should be VIO_HOST which on my board is 3.3V.

3.) The issue is that I am interfacing this with a microcontroller that is using +5V as the logic level.

4.) Further down in the datasheet under the recommended operating conditions VBAT_SW_EN is shown to have a high logic level between 1.1V - 5.5V.


5.) Does this mean that this pin is 5V tolerant?

6.) Will I safely be able to take the VBAT_SW_EN to +5V without damaging the parts?


Thanks.

-Mike
