The power domain of UART is 1.8 V. You can use a level-shifting chip between the module and host’s
UART if the power domains are not matching:

Figure 12: Reference Design of UART with Level-shifting Chip
Debug UART is similar to UARTx and for the reference design, refer to Figure 12. For debug UART,
VCC_PMUIO2 is used as power supply pin for VCCA.
4.5. I2C Interfaces
The module supports up to 5 groups of I2C interfaces. 4 of them are configured by default, and 1 of them
is multiplexed from other interfaces. For detailed multiplexing relationship, see document [2]. All I2C
interfaces are open drain signals and therefore you must pull them up externally. The reference power
domain is 1.8 V.
