What does happen however is that the board when in this state through the PMIC wont always reset from the switch. Meaning, you have to completely disconnect the input power, reconnect it, and then reset before the board will restart. Additionally, some people claim that the board when in this state continues to draw power. I don't doubt that, I've just never personally tested that. Anyway, it's probably simpler to design a cape that deals with all this for you. Either that, or use an external battery / charging system that provides 5v directly to the board. In either case, you'll probably need / want an external MCU involved . . . -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
