Xbee sensor voltage

Post by tinkeringtech »

This has probably been asked before, so excuse me if its a duplicate question.
Can I interface a 3.3V or a 5V sensor to an Xbee ADC pin on the Adafruit adapter board? can the Xbee ADC pins handle either one?
Thanks.

The adapter board does level-shifting for the digital communication signals. It only provides breakouts for the analog signals. The XBee module itself is a 3.3v device and the maximum input voltage on the ADC pins is 3.3v.
