BLE disconnect reasone 8

Hi everyone,

I'm using the nRF5340 on a custom PCB board without an external 32 kHz oscillator. On the network core I flashed the hci_ipc sample.

For some reason I occasionally get BLE disconnect reason 8, either shortly after sending data over BLE or after some time while the connection is active.

My question is:

  • Why is this happening?

  • Could it be caused by something blocking BLE processing?

  • Is it possible that BLE communication is being affected because the nRF5340 uses two cores?

  • What are the other common reasons for disconnect reason 8 on the nRF5340, especially when using the internal RC oscillator?

  • How can I debug or solve this issue?

I'm currently using the internal LF RC oscillator configuration.

Thanks in advance!
