Is S132 v6.0.0 use of Timer0 affected by nRF52832 errata #78?

[eric-appion]

In the course of investigating higher than expected current consumption, I've been looking at nRF52832 errata, and one that I'm concerned about is #78, use of Timer STOP task causing higher current consumption. I'm not using any Timer modules, but the S132 v6.0.0 SoftDevice uses Timer 0.

Does S132 v6.0.0 use the Timer STOP task? If so, does it include appropriate mitigation for nRF52832 errata #78?

Thanks!

Yes, the SoftDevice uses the workaround described in errata #78. The SoftDevice has used the workaround since S132 v.2

Thank you for verifying this!
