Work Around
Bypassing the power switch shown in the block diagram above will prevent the power-up problems. The work around
is to short-circuit J105 pin 2 and J103 pin 2, as shown in the image below.
This work around removes the Xplained Pro extension overvoltage protection feature. Make sure that the
WARNING
electrical specifications of the connected Xplained Pro extensions match the voltage configuration of the
ATmega4809 Xplained Pro (e.g., do not connect an Xplained Pro extension that does not support 5V to an
ATmega4809 Xplained Pro in a 5V configuration).

Revision 5 of ATmega4809 Xplained Pro already implements this hotfix.
