Door Sensor hangs up after some time (bootloader issue)



  • Hello,

    I recently was testing different boatloaders for Door sensor. I use 2x AAA batteries for my test.

    First one which caused the problem was : APM Optiboot internal 1MHz noBOD 9600baud

    
    
    apm96.name=APM Optiboot internal 1MHz noBOD 9600baud
    
    apm96.upload.tool=avrdude
    apm96.upload.protocol=arduino
    apm96.upload.maximum_size=32256
    apm96.upload.speed=9600
    apm96.bootloader.tool=avrdude
    apm96.bootloader.low_fuses=0x62
    apm96.bootloader.high_fuses=0xde
    apm96.bootloader.extended_fuses=0x07
    apm96.bootloader.path=optiboot_v50
    apm96.bootloader.file=atmega328_1a.hex
    apm96.bootloader.unlock_bits=0x3F
    apm96.bootloader.lock_bits=0x2F
    apm96.build.mcu=atmega328p
    apm96.build.f_cpu=1000000L
    apm96.build.core=arduino
    apm96.build.variant=standard
    
    

    Then I changed to :- ATmega328 on a breadboard (8 MHz internal clock)

    atmega328bb.name=ATmega328 on a breadboard (8 MHz internal clock)
    
    atmega328bb.upload.protocol=arduino
    atmega328bb.upload.maximum_size=30720
    atmega328bb.upload.speed=57600
    
    atmega328bb.bootloader.low_fuses=0xE2
    atmega328bb.bootloader.high_fuses=0xDA
    atmega328bb.bootloader.extended_fuses=0x05
    
    atmega328bb.bootloader.file=ATmegaBOOT_168_atmega328_pro_8MHz.hex
    atmega328bb.bootloader.unlock_bits=0x3F
    atmega328bb.bootloader.lock_bits=0x0F
    
    atmega328bb.build.mcu=atmega328p
    atmega328bb.build.f_cpu=8000000L
    atmega328bb.build.core=arduino:arduino
    atmega328bb.build.variant=arduino:standard
    
    
    atmega328bb.bootloader.tool=arduino:avrdude
    atmega328bb.upload.tool=arduino:avrdude
    

    The first one has BOD at 1.8, and I read here in the forum that Atmega328p behaves strange when set to this value, although I read also that lots of people sees this a good practice to increase node life time.

    Problem till now is solved when I used the second bootloader.

    My question is:

    • Did anyone face this issue ?
    • Which bootloader fuses do you use for sleeping nodes ? WDT disabled ? No BOD ? or do you enable them ?
    • What battery types do you use ?

    Please share your experience.

    Thanks.



  • Any updates here please ?
