Surviving 1 second without battery power

I wasn't that far with this late edit

What brain?

" Whose brain ??? " could have been good level humour ...

Well I implemented your program and it worked, but the cap value was way too high, so I started lowering till I found a ridiculously low value...

Then I examined your code, removed some chunks and commented it:


<< ' I use picbasic to compile!! >>

Me too !!! ... did you notice a little difference between MPLAB and Microcode studio ???


<< I wonder why you had to use 10uF >>

I don't know ... gives me a ~ .3 s power interrupt delay ... and it won't be my headache !!!
The Pic itself draws .77 mA ...
