Excellent thread subject... A Most Excellent topic for "n00b's" and those of us that have been using or designing with microcontrollers for years... And, Yes I got bit with that one too.. except I made 300 copies of the mistake.. I had a deal with my employer... He or the assemblers made a mistake, they or the Boss fixed them.. I made a design mistake, I fixed it... I fixed my share... and then some...
Kinda sux BUT it does wonders for making mistakes in basic circuit design.... Especially with solar powered, Very low power devices..
