#143074 - That's not what the bible states...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Richard said:
I'm not at all sure what you mean by "slow or "stumbled" power-ups" since "the bible" clearly states that Vcc must have a rise-time of 1 ms or less. Are you suggesting, by this statement, that "the bible" is incorrect, that it is irrelevant, or that it doesn't apply to ATMEL components?

No, "stumbling" means, that bouncing can occur, when you want to switch-on a battery powered micro. "Slow" means, that it can take about one mains half-period (which is up to 10msec) to fully charge-up the storage cap in front of 7805, which is way beyond your 1msec limit.

By the way, the "bible" does not state that "Vcc must have a rise time of 1msec or less". Read carefully:




This means, that a time constant or 10µF times 8.2kOhm is enough, if the Vcc rise time does not exceed 1 millisecond. That's something totally different.

                              It is a black box and you will never find out...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 It\'s the power supply, and probably not the reset.            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    That's not what the bible states...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       Isn't that the same thing with different syntax?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          No, is not. Look at INTEL's original C51 manual!            01/01/70 00:00
