Deep sleep mode reset the board?

[livius]

@amartinez
Yes, it work like a reset

[RobTuDelft]

It will start at main.py, so boot.py will be skipped. In that way it is different than a hard reset or power cycle, since that also runs boot.py.

@RobTuDelft
Then question is why? If it run only main.py without boot.py
this would suggest that something initialized in boot.py is remembered - and I do not suppose that was the case but ..

[livius]

@RobTuDelft
i tested this and it is not true.
boot.py is run after deepsleep

@livius Okay, thanks for testing. It was my understanding, but it seems incorrect.
That also means the docs on this matter should be clearified:
Execution is resumed from the main script
That should say resumed from boot script in this case.

@RobTuDelft I guess a fair question is, will the hardware and system software "remember" whatever was set in boot.py?

[livius]

@papasmurph
No, at now it start from clear point

[papasmurph]

@livius So that means that serial port bit rate, WiFi access etc must be set in main?

[livius]

@papasmurph
You can do this in boot - it start same as removing power - you start from clear point.
Look below conversation - boot.py and main.py are run again after wake up from deepsleep

[RobTuDelft]

Pin states can be remembered through deepsleep using pin.hold([hold]) . That might be handy?

Hi...i am a new user here. As per my knowledge Pin states can be remembered through deepsleep using pin.hold([hold]). Also you can do this in boot it start same as removing power ,you start from clear point.
