I am reading the RESETREAS register to identify it but I observe something strange to me.

It&#39;s was a bit confusing, though as I used to consider the soft reset as result of a execution of a code in the target device, but perhaps it is done by the programmer via direct writing into the corresponding NVIC register?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/428241?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 30 May 2023 15:07:00 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:0d86879a-3cb5-4f99-9d14-a35f14138ef5Bendik Heiskel<p>Hi,</p> <p>At the end of the flashing procedure a soft reset is used to reset the device. This is causing the RESETREAS to show a soft reset at the first boot after programming.</p> <p>&nbsp;<br />Best regards,</p> <p>Bendik</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
