Reset problem

[sayzer]

And if the girl still browns out or resets, put a POT on her.

I used BOD_ON and had a loooong I/O connection with short pauses after each reset.

However, after fifth or sixth reset which I could not count quite precisely, it becomes quite difficult to keep the output port HIGH as the PSU gets quite hot and supply voltage drops dramatically. I did not observe this at the input port as it kept accepting the incoming packets!

Ohh almost forgot;
The result: “If you wanna keep a girl home”, in addition to Alain’s suggestion above, having a good PSU with optional internal cooling fan could also help.


Any other suggestions for longer I/O connections?
