Gramma mistake:

Should have been:

Let's make a list of beginner mistakes etc. It'll help people, help them
Selves.


No need to be too cocky hehe :)

I think that we ought to make a list of all the "mistakes" that is generally
made with these controllers.

There are a lot of people (my self included) that fell for all the nice
features but when you look closer and pay the amount of money for PCB's you
find out where the sun don't shine ... 

Would it be possible to summarize a list on the group page of the common
mistakes etc? 

For instance: 

SPI master = Hardware High on SS pin! 

And very important Bootloader behaviour! What does it do and how can it be
worked around as someone has talked about and what these issues mean from a
hardware point of view etc.
 
And apparently (maybe) There's another thing that the ADC can't stand 5V on
a pin that Is related to it (What kind of sick cr*p is that?) 

I fancy these controllers don't get me wrong but one can easily be _very_
upset using _alot_ of time and money making PCB's and then finding out all
the beginner mistakes ... 

Lets make a list of beginner mistakes etc. I'll help people help them
selves.

Who's in and who's out :)

Regards
Lasse

At least now I know why my attempt to use only one A/D channel, and the rest
as 5V 
digital inputs corrupted the A/D readings on my analog input. I hope Philips
will update
the user manual to spel this sort of behaviour more clearly. Finding this
out after one 
has manufactured a 10 layer PCB is not the most convenient.
