I am using LPC-Link with a custom LPC1768 based board. I am getting an unexpected reset that I am 99% sure is caused by BOD. This board has a lot of high power LEDs and my power supply is not up to lighting them all. The more that come on the lower the supply voltage goes. I hoped to verify my hypothesis by catching the BOD reset but I can't seem to do it. I can tell that there is a reset though by watching the LED patterns and seeing that they start over.
I enabled vector catch as in the launch profile but the debugger doesn't halt at the point of the reset. I also tried regular breakpoints near the entry point of main but they also aren't hit. Further, debugging gets flaky after the first BOD reset. I can no longer set breakpoints -- "Breakpoint attribute error: installation failed". So like I said, I'm pretty sure I've got the problem sorted out but I'd still like to be able to debug around reset and other exceptions. Is there something further that I need to do?
thanks,
