Hi, I would like an simple Arduino nano INO, that connect to AOG, with enc28j60 ethernet adapter, and identify as Machine, like “Machine_UDP_v5”, but without EEPROM and all unnecessary lift, relay and section kode.
Just communication from AOG, (“udpData[ ]”) to pick from…
I have made a plough control box, inspired by Plough control - #52 by CommonRail With a “Machine_UDP_v5 INO” that i modified, to get the XTE line from AOG, It works great, but i have an issue with a variable delay, (up to 5 sec) and the Arduino dont last a whole day, before it die, I have a suspicion that EEPROM burn it,
How are you powering the nano, and what are you powering off its 5v pins?
I made a pcb with the modules mounted on (Arduino nano, can-bus and ads1115) powered by a step dovn converter, on 5v pin.
But sorry, this is embarrassing, when i check the voltage it is 6,25… dont know how i missed that, so that is probably what kills it, now i just have to find what is making the delay, thank you.

Correction, I made a mistake and measured difference between input from battery, and 5v. (6,25v.) and not between +5v and gnd, the Nano was getting 5,05, that shouldn’t be a problem.
Another way to ensure correct voltage could be rerouting voltage input to VIN on nano letting the Nano voltage regulator do the job (in case the step down converter is hard to adjust precisely) Reccomended voltage on Nano VIN is minimum 6 V and preferably, not above 12 V
The plug in enc28j60 ethernet adapter have its own voltage regulator at VIN as well
