 we are using the nPM1100 PMIC together with an nRF52840 and are encountering limitations due to the charging timeout.

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is it acceptable to periodically restart charging by resetting the PMIC with USB connected?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Proposed workaround:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Detect timeout via ERR + CHG + VBAT&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;As stated in the charger error condition section, the error conditions are only cleared upon VBUS disconnect/connect:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_npm1100/page/chapters/charger.html#ariaid-title8"&gt;https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_npm1100/page/chapters/charger.html#ariaid-title8&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]Enter ship mode via SHPHLD[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, shipmode cannot be entered while VBUS is connected:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_npm1100/page/product_overview.html#ariaid-title7"&gt;https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_npm1100/page/product_overview.html#ariaid-title7&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The way to restart charging is to disconnect and reconnect VBUS signal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kind regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Håkon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
