Okay, back to this snafu with the QT113H..basically it turns out that you can "power" the thing directly from an I/O pin on the microcontroller. It uses so little current to run that one of the pins on the ATmega32 can supply it. So, that means I can connect the power pin of the QT113H directly to one of the port pins, which I did here with a little light gauge white wire wrap. I had to cut a trace on the board that had been the VCC supply for the QT113H. Easy peasy. Now i can power the thing up and down programmatically. So, every reset or whenever. Convenient.
