RESET pin

[QuentinD]

Hello

I have several questions regarding the RESET pin used in your examples:

• When you press the RESET button of the PCA10056, is it possible to add code before it does a reset?
• Does pressing the RESET button allow you to do a full reset and get out of any crash? Or the level of the interrupt is not low enough compared to other interrupts?
• What does a power OFF - power ON do in addition to a reset via the button?

Thank you

When you press the RESET button of the PCA10056, is it possible to add code before it does a reset?

 No, it's hardware wired full reset. 

Does pressing the RESET button allow you to do a full reset and get out of any crash? Or the level of the interrupt is not low enough compared to other interrupts?

It will always do a hard reset. 

What does a power OFF - power ON do in addition to a reset via the button?

Also note that you can check the reset source by reading the RESETREAS register in the beginning of main(), make sure to clear the register after reading:
