What is the cause of reset reason 0x01?

[arshi]

My device is getting reset when left idle for sometime. On checking the logs, I see that the nrf_power_resetreas_get() returns reset reason as 0x01. I am using NRF SDK 17.1.0. 

What does reset value 0x01 signify?

Hi,

The reset reason comes from the RESETREAS register.

0x01 means bit A is set, which means a pin reset was detected.

Best regards,
Jørgen

This bit should only be set if the reset pin was pulled low. This should not be caused by SW.

Is this on a custom board? Have you enabled the reset pin on the chip? Is the reset pin connected to anything?

Yes this is a custom board. No I haven't enabled the reset pin.
