programming my PICAXE projects for
several years now, and I've never had
a problem that was caused by the
USB power supply. (I do include a
bypass capacitor on each of the two
sets of breadboard power rails.) Based
on the results I saw on the scope, I
think a 5V USB wall wart would also
function effectively as a breadboard
power supply.
Even so, I appreciate your
drawing attention to this issue. If I see
any USB power-related problems in
the future, I'll report them in the
Primer. Thanks!
