Mega8 Reset problem?

2004-10-23 by Mark Jordan

Hi, I'm having a weird problem with a Mega8 running on the internal clock oscilator at 1 MHz. The internal Power-on Reset seems not to be working. Every time I power up the circuit, I have to manually reset the Mega8. The power at the Vcc pin rises from 0 to +5V in 4mS. The RESET

RS422 driver ought to do it. If its old, it probably has a 75176 or variant. They are a somewhat "heavier" load than most modern receivers. If the line length is fairly short (say, up to 25' or so), you don't need to terminate it quite so carefully. There is no real compatibility

If you only need to send data 400 feet you could look to 433MHz radio modules. (They are similar to Garage door remotes, but designed for serial data). I'm thinking a microcontroller at each end of the 400 feet. One to the device and the other into the serial or ethernet port. Th

A single cell LiIon battery is about 4.1V fully charged and has used a very large percentage of its capacity by the time it drops to 3V. Your circuit needs to be able to monitor the voltage and shut down or provide other warnings when the battery voltage goes too low. Most cells
