+
+When enabled the voltage supervisor will cause the GSC to reset when the battery voltage drops below 1.85V to 1.80V. When disabled the GSC may remain powered down to a lower battery voltage but in some cases a battery value between 1.8V and 0.66V can result in a board in the GSC 'sleep' state to not be able to wake the board back up until the battery drops below 0.66V.
+
+Newer hardware has an independent power supply to the GSC allowing the GSC to be powered from Vin to avoid the potential risk that a GSC sleep with a low battery can end up in a stuck state.
