Arduino Mega rev3 Reset Button

Hello,
I was looking at the arduino mega rev3 schematics provided by arduino and noticed that the reset button is missing a connection and was wondering if this was inte


ntional open or not?

The schematic doesn't have to show an actual wire between all signals of the same name.

Have a look elsewhere on the schematic for the reset pin on the 328P. You should see that the wire has also been named RESET. That is a net name and any other wire on the schematic that has the same name is connected to it - even though it's not actually drawn on the schematic itself.

I see but pin 5 doesn't have a connection at all or a net name attached to it?

  • This pin can be attached to earth for static discharge.

  • Pin 5 is not used, in this situation.
