Different reset behaviour of Atom Matrix and Atom S3 Lite?
-
Why do those two Atom devices behave differently when being reset?
When I reset the Atom Matrix, the USB serial connection is kept, I see the full console output.
When I reset the Atom S3 Lite, the USB serial connection is always terminated and I need to re-connect, missing parts of the console output.

Hello @mb
M5Atom Matrix has a dedicated USB-Serial chip which is not affected by the ESP32 reset and thus is keeping the serial connection alive.
In contrast the ESP32S3 inside M5AtomS3 Lite has USB built-in (and doesn't need a dedicated USB-Serial chip). The 'downside' being what you observe - resetting ESP32S3 also resets the USB connection.
Thanks
