5. External Reset for Core2

External Reset for Core2

  • P

    Hi, I am using a Core2 V1.1 and I want to have an external Watchdog circuit that can cause a reset for the Core2 in case it gets stuck. I cannot find documentation on the RST pin. Can I just pull it low to GND to cause a reset on the Core2?

    Looking at the schematics, the RST pin if pulled low, will do the same thing as if S1 is pressed. I assume S1 is the reset button.

    I don't have a CORE2, but from experience with some other M5Stack products the function of the reset button depends on whether the device is on external power (e.g. USB) or on battery power.
    External power: restarts , battery power: shuts down. (but that is something you can test yourself)
