SYSTEM OFF MODE IN NRF51822

[trk]

hello everyone, I was trying to turn off nrf51822 on some condition. So i thought i will use systemoff mode register to do that.i am attaching code snippet of what i am doing. If nrf51822 is turned off where to check if it is turned off because even after this function, my nrf is broadcasting. let me know if i was doing something wrong.

Writing to a RAM variable "bing" will not make the chip go to system off. You have to write to Power register

NRF_POWER->SYSTEMOFF = POWER_SYSTEMOFF_SYSTEMOFF_Enter << POWER_SYSTEMOFF_SYSTEMOFF_Pos;

If you want to debug your application it is wise to keep while(1) after this . To know more read about simulated system off in debug mode.
