What happens to net-core WDT if the net-core is disabled?

[Bas van den Berg]

For power-saving we periodically enable/disable the net-core. We would like to use the WDT on the net-core

as well. Since you cannot stop the WDT, how should we handle this?

Hello, 

The WDT is reset on wake up from FORCEOFF:

Maybe not relevant to you after all considering the WDT will not be active when you disable the netcore, but unlike on the nRF52 series, it is possible to stop the WD on the nRF53: https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_nrf5340/page/wdt.html#ariaid-title5 

Best regards,

Vidar
