How do I protect the single analog port of ESP8266-12?

Since 8266's analog port can only measure up to +1V, how do I protect the pin from excess voltage beyond +1V? I don't know of a 1V Zener!
Will the port be damaged if a 3.3V is applied? Or does it read 1023 all the time after it passes the +1V maximum?
Thanks.

Hi, I think you may get your answers from this battery voltage measurement with ESP8266 tutorial. Basically, you need to make a voltage divider circuit.
