RST

These are general I/O ports connected to ZIF socket and the TQFP footprint. On the ATmega169 the RESET-signal and PG5 share the same pin. The RST is the RESET-signal that comes from the STK500 board. Note that it is not directly connected to the ZIF socket or the TQFP footprint on the STK502. This because the RESET-signal on the STK500 has an pull-up resistor to VCCT which will interfere with PG5 when used as an ordinary I/O-pin.
