RE: [AVR-Chat] RESET problems

2004-01-28 by Jack Valmadre

It is an AT90S8535, however replacing the 10MHz crystal with an 8MHz
crystal did not fix the RESET problem.
I doubt this would be what caused the damage, because I know someone who
runs an AT90S2313 at 20MHz, when it is recommended to run at 10MHz.
Could the problem be fuses?
Jack.

Is it a mega 8535 or just an AT90S8535 ?

As the old non mega part does not run above 8Mhz, and running at 10Mhz
will cause this problem.

Regards,

Kat.
