Hello
In following on from this thread
https://forum.pjrc.com/threads/29280-Sanity-Check-custom-teensy-pcb-design-(circuitmaker)
Notes:
- The design is powered from external 5v psu (not usb)
- The 5v in and 3.3v out from mk20 reg look very clean
I have now had my design assembled. But nothing happens! when powered on. I have done a lot of research on this forum as to what can cause this and to what should be happening.
So far I have found that the mk20 reset_b line just stays at 3.3v (It does not try and reset every 53us like it should be doing) And this is with it completely disconnected from the programmer board.
With the programmer board disconnected from the main board I can press the PROG button and it will drop it its P5.2 port low for 4ms then raise it again (until i reset the power) But with this board connected to the main board (so now connected to the mk20 reset_b it will NOT drop low (like the reset_b is to strong and holds it high)
So from this I can assume the mini54 programmer board seems to be working correctly. The mini54 seems to be running pauls firmware fine and doing what it should do at this point in the boot sequence.
The problem seems to lie with the reset_b line on the main mk20 board it does not seem to do any thing! no life at all apart from been held at 3.3v
I am putting 4.7v into the mk20 regulator and getting 3.3v out so that part seems to all be working.
On the programming header the ports are held at these voltages: (with mini54 programmer board disconnected)(using the mini54lan port numbering)
P0.5/P0.6 - 3.3v
P0.1 - 0v
P0.0 - 3.3v
P0.7 - 0v
reset_b - 3.3v
I have checked my schematic over for mistakes. It looks fine to me. I have checked for shorts on the pcb cant find any. The mk20 just seems DEAD. Am i using the wrong crystal or crystal caps? Would these effect the boot sequence if wrong? (or only come into effect when you try and run a program)
I used these parts for the Crystal circuit

Not sure where to look next really as im getting no life at all its like the mk20 is totally dead. Even though its getting all the correct power (and kicking out the correct 3.3v). It does not try to boot.
Any help will be much appreciated
