I've got a SIMILAR type of question.....  The databook says that when
powering up a PIC, Vdd must start from 0V.  I've found this, unfortunately
to be correct.  Is there any way that you guys can think of to implement
an inexpensive circuit to bring the power to 0V QUICKLY after power is
disconnected so that you can QUICKLY power back up instead of waiting for
the PIC to drain your power supply caps?
