They use the PWROK signal to<br>reset the NIC and on a reboot the PWROK remains high. In the case of full<br>reset from PCI reset register the PWROK gets initial low and then high, but<br>violates the PCI bus reset protocol as the RESET# signal should remain low<br>for at least 100 mS after power (PWROK) is stable.<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>B-O<br>Winzent Technologies<br><br><br><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal>4 maj 2016 kl. 11:54 skrev Gerard Bucas <<a href="mailto:gerard.b@tekmagic.net">gerard.b@tekmagic.net</a>>:<br><br>Hi Brian,<br><br>That is a really good question! :)<br><br>We have a couple of PCB designs which one could consider as <br>MinnowBoard MAX "derivatives".
