What happens if I put 3.9V into the GPIO Pin? [duplicate]
I have a sensor which gives an output of 3.9V when high and 0V when low. Perfect for the RPi, except is it?
What happens if I put the 3.9V high signal directly into the GPIO and if bad things will ...

running a mosfet from 3.3V gpio output
i am running a low side switch with the 3.3V gpio output of the pi, and for the particular transistor i’m using (irf520 ) the 3.3V is barely enough to turn it on - is there some clever positive ...

GPIO only reaches 2,4v when high
TLDR; Under little load the GPIO 22 reaches 3,5v whereas under more load it only reaches ~2,4V, which is not enough to trigger the reset-line on an ATMEGA328P. UART GPIO Pins still reach 3,3V in both ...

Max current on GPIO
I have 20 ldr photoresistors that I will connect to GPIO.
They are connected pretty much like this (but without led):
I have also a Hifiberry Dac2Pro connected as a hat.
