#108130 - It's very C
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Having for years taught PC programmers to program in C on an 8-bitter I can say with some confidence that Keil is VERY C. When you start to work on embedded stuff, things like "unsigned" and "const" take on a much greater role. They should be just as sacred on a PC, but often are not used (properly). You need to be a lot more careful in the 8-bit embedded environment because you can't just create a billion global 32-bit int's and other messes that PC programmers tend to do at first...

Anyway regarding power-down, if you have some power available (batteries?) then you can also utilize a variety of sleep/idle modes to simulate power-down.
