Questions tagged [reset]
The reset line on a computer or other digital circuit places the circuit in a well defined initial state. Most microcontrollers have a built-in power-up reset to start the CPU executing code and may also have external resets and watchdog timers to help recover from unexpected events.

ESP8266: Is there ever a good reason to use the reset pin?
As I understand it, the ESP8266 can be reset by pulling either the Reset pin or the Enable pin to 0V. Holding either pin at 0V will keep the ESP in reset indefinitely.
In addition, holding Enable at ...

Use an RC network to ensure reset on power on
I'm using a DLP-RFID2 module. In my initial design I was running out of GPIO so I didn't connect the RESET line. The datasheet does not say it is mandatory.
Unfortunately the module does not respond ...

How to stop a DPST (NC) Relay from auto-resetting?
I have designed a thermal protection circuit, where once a thermistor temperature reading exceeds 40 °C (104 °F), a LM393 comparator is triggered to feed a low DC signal to a NPN transistor base pin, ...

SD card via SPI: any way of getting it out of stuck state after aborted SPI operation(s) without power cycling it?
using ESP32 and its IDF platform libraries to access SD card via SPI, we have a situation where e.g. panic reboot of ESP32 leaves the SD card 'stuck' such that it cannot be mounted any more after ...
