#117501 - I didn't expect anything else...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Erik said:
The point is not that the supervisor should never fire, but that if it fires SOMETHING IS WRONG.

Yes, of course. But I cannot see any intellectual sense of this phrase. When something is not working properly, then something is wrong?! So what?
Also, suffering from malfunctionings is our daily bread, is what always and everywhere happens. There are many situations where you cannot totally prevent a circuit from malfunctioning, even not with the best shielding, filtering and grounding. Then, isn't it a good idea to have a reset chip, which enhances the reliability of your circuit a bit?

Erik said:
What I am reacting to is the frequent occurance of using the supervisor to "fix a problem" which is totally abhorrent.

Yes, I can agree with it. But nevertheless, the reset chip is useful in situations, when malfunctionings occur, even when everything was done to make a circuit to work properly.

By the way, why are you using a supervisor chip?? Aren't your circuits designed to work properly?
