General • Re: Pico with Sensors of 5V

Hi, By reading your answer, i get to know that the UART is a way of communication that has two pins receiver and transmitter
The sensor has the RX pin to change some value to process the signal, and TX pin to send the signal to the PICO

So, that means the connection should be like this -

1. 3.3V VCC to the pico pin 36
2. GND to the pico pin 3
3. RX to the pico pin 1
4. TX to the pico pin 2 through a 1K resistor

From my understanding, the PICO used its UART TX pin to send the values to the sensor's RX pin.
Likewise, the PICO used its UART RX pin to receive the signal/values from the senor's TX pin

Is the above statement is correct?
