watchdog

[ran]

Hi, 

Can I configure the WDT reset the CPU when expired ? 

I'd like to reset my system in case of software hangs\fault

Hi,

What do you mean by CPU expired? See our Watchdog example in the SDK for an example on how to use the Watchdog peripheral.

My apologies for the late response, let me rephrase : 

I'd like to reset my device to reset in case software hangs\dead-lock\assert.

Working with other SOC's ( Marvell\NXP for ex. ) , I would set a watchdog timer that will trigger SoC Reset when expired. 

Is this feature available in Nordic nRF52840 ?

Hi,

Yes, see the watchdog example that I shared in the previous reply and the documentation on the peripheral here. 

regards

Jared
