I am working with the ChipKit MX7 with a software controlled power-on circuit. I note that it takes a relatively long time for the red power LED (LD8) to light after power has been applied to the board and hence a long time before user code executes. It looks like this may be something to do with the 'PWR_ON' signal and part of the circuit that controls this line - the onboard programmer/debugger circuit perhaps? Is there anyway of tidily disabling the programmer circuit in the end product to reduce the start-up time?

Hi,
I am working with the ChipKit MX7 with a software controlled power-on circuit. I note that it takes a relatively long time for the red power LED (LD8) to light after power has been applied to the board and hence a long time before user code executes. It looks like this may be something to do with the 'PWR_ON' signal and part of the circuit that controls this line - the onboard programmer/debugger circuit perhaps? Is there anyway of tidily disabling the programmer circuit in the end product to reduce the start-up time?
thanks
