However, was recently involved in a project where the hardware engineer though that was a terrible idea. Added cost, and all that. So, he designed an MCU of my choice onto the cape, with a few isolated pins coming back to the beaglebone. For reset, power switch, and one for a watchdog feature I also designed into the MCU's firmware. Problem solved, it works great. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
