More precisely: when erasing the flash. When a look at the source code, it seems that the watchdog isen-USTelligent Community 13Wed, 16 Apr 2025 07:06:35 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/531953?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 16 Apr 2025 07:06:35 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:a3684038-8f11-4c47-b9b1-3d35b5b96d05uknoblic<p>Thank you Einar,</p> <p>for now, i will just use a longer wdt timeout as mentioned above. I was just wondering if i had missed something. Anyway, i would assume that adding the wdt feed during erase can be considered a general improvement. </p> <p>Thanks, you can close this ticket ;-)</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/531949?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 16 Apr 2025 06:35:18 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:981ab5f8-b642-4c94-b5a1-8e42996efb0cEinar Thorsrud<p>Hi,</p> <p>We are looking into improving this by adding support for feedign the WDT for longer erases, but I cannot promise when this will happen.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/531873?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 15 Apr 2025 14:55:05 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:101f4851-2fcd-468b-aff5-3db065a9ad0eEinar Thorsrud<p>Hi Ulf,</p> <p>I see the same as you, but I am not able to explain why there is no feedign of the watchdog while erasing. I am checking this internally and will get back to you.</p> <p>That said, generally the watchdog is only intended as a last resort for unrecoverable errors that should normally never happen, and therefor using a fairly long timeout for the watchdog is acceptable and sensible in most products.</p> <p>Br,</p> <p>Einar</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
