i could dig into this some more, but for now, it looks like the RP2350 is 5V tolerant. i didn't see any evidence of HCI or metal migration. these aren't exhaustive tests since i didn't do them over the full supply voltage and temperature range, so i wouldn't use it for 5V tolerance in a commercial project, but this should be fine for hobby projects.
@tubetime Sorry if you already said it and I lost the info, but did you test only on FT pins or also no non FT pins?
Great work BTW!
