U7 MCP1700 not handling over-voltage condition. Get MCP1754ST-5002E/CB https://www.elfadistrelec.no/no/ldo-spenningsregulator-sot-23a-microchip-mcp1754st-5002e-cb/p/17386686

When voltage is brought down below the threshold, the display stops updating.

OVERVOLTAGE is connected to the #RESET input of the MCU. We need the reset for the ISP to work. Here is a workaround: voltagedivider + adc !
