2 questions:
-
So, in a custom build where the MCU has been programmed and permanently
soldered to the board, obviously there wont be no reset button required.
Thus, after some research I came across several advices that suggested that the unused RESET pin should be pull-up with a small value capacitor 100nF to ground.
I was wondering if this is fine ?? see image.
-
when operating at 3.3V, is the MCU much slower in waking up than another operating at 5V ??
I noticed some performance difference when operating the 328PB at 3.3V 8MHz vs 5V 8MHz.
You heard right, I’m comparing 2 different voltages at 8MHz
To me, the latter seemed more robust and faster in response compared to the 3.3V
