Title: ATXRaspi reset and power switch
Post by: arjanv on March 30, 2017, 10:33:13 AM

Hi,

is it possible to use a momentary button for on/off and a momentary button for reset?

see this picture: https://lowpowerlab.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/ATXRaspi_GPIO_latching_with_reset2.png
but want to use a momentary button for on/off.

is this possible? or do i simply connect the reset switch with the 10k resistor? or no resistor at all?

thanks

You could, but basically they would do the same thing. If you held the reset too long, it would issue a shutdown. You could build a circuit to avoid that but its adding to the complexity.
Basically the button input is a single one and the board interprets a shutdown/reboot based on how long the button is pressed.
As clearly stated in the guide, the 10K resistor will simply put the board in LATCHING mode rather than MOMENTARY.
