Issue with 1.8V Control and DFU on nRF5340

erifat 26 days ago

Dear Nordic Support Team,

We are using the nRF5340 together with the NPM1300 in our project. The 1.8V output is controlled via the NPM1300.

When performing a BLE DFU, if CONFIG_SERIAL=n in the prj.conf file, the device resets when the 1.8V output is enabled after the update. However, when CONFIG_SERIAL=y, the issue is resolved, but this increases power consumption.

We would like to perform a successful update with serial disabled to minimize power usage. Could you please guide us on where to focus to resolve this issue?

SDK 2.6

Best regards,

Hello,

Are you exposing any UART interfaces on your device, or did you just find that enabling the UARTE instance(s) in your bootloadermade the problem go away? Also, please check what the reset source was after the reset from the RESETREAS register.

Thanks,

Vidar

Hello ,When I set CONFIG_SERIAL=n, the issue occurs, and we only use the output for printf. There is no UART usage in the project. When CONFIG_SERIAL=n, I can't even see the reset issue.

After investigating further, it seems that rebooting the device while it is awake resolves the issue. However, if I reboot while the device is in sleep mode, the problem persists.

Here is the relevant code:

int system_sleep_wake(uint8_t new_state)
{
    if(sleepWakeFlag == new_state) return 0;

    printf("System Sleep Wake\n");
    buck1Control(new_state);
    printf("Buck1 Control ok\n");
    control_sensor_state(new_state);
    printf("Control Sensor State ok\n");
    control_afe_state(new_state);
    printf("Control Afe State ok\n");
    control_peripheral_state(new_state);
    printf("Control Peripheral State ok\n");
    //bt_conn_unref(!new_state);
    // pm_state_force(0, &(struct pm_state_info){PM_STATE_SUSPEND_TO_IDLE, 0, 0});
    sleepWakeFlag = new_state;

    if(new_state == true)
    {
        if(apk_init() != 0)
        {
            perp.Afe = 55;
            printf("APK Init error\n");
		}

        printf("APK Init ok\n");
    }
    else
    {
        printf("APK Uninit\n");
        apk_uninit();
    }

    return 0;
}

void buck1Control(bool new_status)
{
    if(new_status == false)
    {
        if (regulator_is_enabled(buck1)) {
            regulator_disable(buck1);
            printf("******************1.8V Disable\n");
        }
    }
    else
    {
        if (!regulator_is_enabled(buck1)) {
                regulator_enable(buck1);
                printf("************1.8V Enableee\n");
        }
    }
}

When I reset the device while it is awake, it enters low-power mode correctly. However, if I reset it while in sleep mode, nothing changes.

Apologies if I am misinterpreting something. This issue has been quite challenging for me.

Thanks!
