I have a host system that has UART lines that are active low CMOS 0-2.7v. But my GPS is TTL. The GPS datasheet says it is a 3.3v input with UART (TTL). My host is powered by a 3.3v input also. It does work, I hook them up and my device can read data from the GPS. I can't tell if sending commands to the GPS is working or not.
My problem is that after some time (a few days of testing), the GPS stops working. I'm on my second GPS and it has stopped working also. Am I damaging the GPS by hooking up TTL to CMOS?
