Read your signal level specs carefully.  I just got through with this
excercise for a project, and found that the PIC 16C63A inputs would accept
the outputs of 3.3V logic just fine.  Going from the PIC's 5V to 3.3V, all I
wound up needing was a voltage divider to keep from exceeding the 3.3V
supply rail on my one's.
