 		 #178558 - good advice and an addendum
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Do you have a good set of bypass capacitors right across the MCU's VCC and GND pins? with VERY short traces. Also the supervisor should have a very good bypass.

I have seen bypass caps being worthless with a trace of just 1" (proven by soldering a cap directly over the device).
