9. What about power through I/O pins as RxD, TxD if AT8xC51SND2C is not
powered?
The AT8xC51SND2C can have an unexpected behavior if Powered through IOs:
- consumption.
- microcontroller can execute the code.
Solutions:
n Use AT8xC51SND2C Reset Pin (no code execution but extra consumption).
n Use AT8xC51SND2C in power down mode (Power supply needed).
AT8xC51SND2C shall not be powered through I/O pins if there is no power supply.
