 		 #173996 - somes evidences
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The board using the 8052 send data every six minutes on a FTP server using GSM modem.

Theses data are stamped and when the board reboot, it loses the date.
It means that as I haven't gap in my data, the board never loses the date and so, it means the micro never reset.

Before the end of the week, I'll hardly tie down the /WE.

My biggest problem is that the freeze is not reproducible.

Richard Erlacher said:

The purpose of the /EA signal is to tell the MCU whether (usually after the next RESET) you want the MCU to use external, when /EA's tied LOW, or internal, when /EA is tied HIGH, code space. I don't understand how you can determine anything at all if there's no external non-volatile memory of some sort.


I'm very sorry but I misspoke...

I spoke about EA flag in IEN0 register in order to enable / disable interrupt...
I've just seen that EA flag in IEN0 don't affect the watchdog.
