Can a 3.3v input handle 5v?

I am having difficulty finding out if a 3.3v input can handle 5v on a
MCF5282 DMA Timer pin used as an input?

Would there be clipping diodes? If so, then one would need some
protection resistors to limit current input?

Thanks,

Bob Furber

The MCF528x is actually the *only* ColdFire microcontroller that has 5V
tolerant inputs.

See the 'Absolute Maximum Ratings' table in the electricals - symbol
VIN.  The footnote discusses limiting of current.
