&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]&lt;p&gt;After burning the application, the following operations were performed:&lt;br /&gt; nrfjprog.exe -f NRF52 --rbp ALL&lt;br /&gt;nrfjprog.exe -f NRF52 --pinreset&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are a total of 600 devices, all of which are equipped with batteries. 59 devices are found to be non-operational. If the non-operational devices are re-powered, the devices will operate normally. Is there a solution to this problem?&lt;/p&gt;[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;It sounds like there is a race-condition happening in the firmware when the battery is connected. Have you tried debugging the situation?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meaning, flash the devices with your firmware, do not do readback protection, then attach the battery to see if the issue persists?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you get into the scenario, you can attach the debugger without resetting the target device to see if/where it is stuck in firmware.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kind regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Håkon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
