2016-03-02 02:24 <wpwrak> roh: ah yes, you're right. it was that test/reset input, not the "power" button
2016-03-02 02:24 <wpwrak> anyway, some effect. this was one of the great engineering triumphs at openmoko :)
2016-03-02 02:25 <wpwrak> others:
2016-03-02 02:26 <wpwrak> - the LED controlled by a BJT (transistor) without base resistor, thus loading the GPIO several times more than just driving the LED directly would have
2016-03-02 02:27 <roh> heh.. why did we not use a transistor with internal base resistor again?
2016-03-02 02:27 <wpwrak> - of course, the dash crystal traces, my favourite (i spotted that one :)

2016-03-02 02:28 <wpwrak> roh: i think that was the solution in the end :) of course, it all created the minor annoyance that we have some devices with the LED active-high and others with the LED active-low
2016-03-02 02:31 <wpwrak> - the famous EEPROM loss of the debug board, caused by massive caps (well beyond the limits of what USB allows as well), that made the board crawl out of reset so slowly that the USB chip was trying to access the EEPROM before it was operational
2016-03-02 02:33 <wpwrak> - the "wired-or" diode on nRESET (GTA02, i think), with a reverse current in the order of 1 mA (and a forward current suitable to start a car), causing the "receiving" net to contaminate the "sending" net. the proper solution was to do away with that diode circuit entirely (it had more, smaller issues) and to just use logic gates
2016-03-02 02:35 <wpwrak> these, plus that unintended power-on after power-down are my five favourites. there were more things, of course
2016-03-02 02:36 <wpwrak> the Glamo graphics decelerator might deserve mention, as well

2016-03-02 05:22 <wpwrak> i must say that the idea of, when idle, disabling the boost converter and just feeding off the silo caps is eerily tempting. that would make battery life nearly infinite :)
2016-03-02 05:22 <wpwrak> alas, would introduce that kind of bad MCU-must-not-twitch dependency
2016-03-02 05:22 <wpwrak> (infinite) that is, when idle. of course, if busy radioing around, or with the display on, that would change
