 		 #185728 - Wrong idea
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Sorry, but it is a good idea to look through the FAQ pages here before starting with the design.

You do not have control of the GPIO while the processor is in the reset state. So you should consider inverting the logic for your relay driver so that the relays are idle when the processor is reset. The hw design should only allow the relays to activate when the processor is in control and the software have made an explicit request to draw the relays.

All external hardware connected to I/O pins of a processor has to be designed based on what happens during the time when the processor is powering up, or is held in reset state. For some hardware it doesn't matter if you get extra glitches.
