Re: Xbee problams
Hi,
After one more reading of the Vih specification given by the support grup, it appears that the failure of the Xbee is mainly due to the 5V logic high applied to it. As per specification, the voltage is not to exeed 1.9V and even if you consider the error in data sheet, it is only more critical at 0.6V. Now you will also have problem with the output of Xbee to Micro input, as it will not satisfy the TTL specs. the micro needs, which means you will need suitable logic converters in between for interfacing.

Hi,
The specification you have quoted is with respect to the input of the micro when you apply a logic input to the micro. What you should find out is the output current at Voh, but never mind I will check it myself. As explained above, I think you have to accept the facts now and go for a replacement at your own cost only, but it does not prevent you from requesting ( not demanding) them for a replacement. Remember, it is always such little mistakes that adds up to one's experience.
