I was wondering if it is regual that configuring softdevice for a low frequency oscillator 32.768 kHz using the function:
SOFTDEVICE_HANDLER_INIT(NRF_CLOCK_LFCLKSRC_XTAL_20_PPM, false);
the high frequency source in the CLOCK register HFCLKSTAT</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 11 Jun 2015 18:19:32 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/7571/hf-clk-source-in-case-of-lf-crystal" /><item><title>RE: HF CLK SOURCE in case of LF crystal</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/26968?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 11 Jun 2015 18:19:32 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c7121888-2b3d-472d-835b-bcca2347d26c</guid><dc:creator>Susheel Nuguru</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;All the examples using softdevice use the LFCLK configuration you mentioned.

&lt;p&gt;Softdevice uses few peripherals that need the HFCLK which uses internal RC oscillator. So RC is started and stopped automatically depending on your peripheral activity, and your application does not have to do anything for it. Make sure that your disable the peripherals when idling and RC Clock source regulator will switch on/off accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
