[davidr99]

CircuitPython version

Adafruit CircuitPython 8.0.0-beta.3 on 2022-10-20; S2Mini with ESP32S2-S2FN4R2

Code/REPL

import time
while True:
    print("Sleeping!")
    time.sleep(1)
    print("Loopping!")

Behavior

Auto-reload is on. Simply save files over USB to run them or enter REPL to disable.
code.py output:

Code stopped by auto-reload. Reloading soon.
soft reboot

Description

It seams that time.sleep crashes the microcontroller after a few times that it is called. Most times it only gets one sleep in before it does a "soft reboot"

Hi, Auto reload is normally caused by something on your computer writing to the board's drive.
Some antivirus do that for example, there are solutions in the troubleshooting section:
