... but isn't 0.8V a bit small for such a pulse do have any effect. Well as it is CMOS the decision level depends on VDD at that moment... and it was still rising if I understand it right... OK it's maybe not quite so straighforward but maybe that's the mechanism of "lockup"... I am just guessing, but if you want to be sure, ask Philips :-> Laurent Rabatel said: Hummm I am would expect that - contrary, I would expect that the brownout ON would help (but again only those who know the internals of the chip could tall for sure)...
BTW... an application engineer from our Philips distributor told us that we had to disable the brownout detect function in order to be able to use an external supervisor... and guess what? It's not working any better! Well this might be just an another legend which does not make the situation better nor clearer. Jan Waclawek |
