Hi.
In a prototype built for a small group of test users (20-25), we want to implement a simple tactile reset button for use in case of an anomaly (as the prototype software will be very beta). We use nRF9160 + nRF52832. The device is permanently battery powered in a closed case, hence the need for a simple reset button.
A proper way would be an NPN for each, with a 18k 3.3V pull-up for nRF52832 and none for nRF9160 (internally pulled up to 2.2V). However, with space constraints, we prefer to limit the number of components.
The reset button will most likely not be used, or maybe only a few times over a 2 month period.
Is it possible to simply bridge the 52 and 91 reset pins, and ground both signals with one button and no extra components?
From the datasheet it seems nRF52832 should accept the 2.2V as not-reset.
The other question is, does the programming depend on the hw reset signal? At the moment, the reset pin is connected to the JLink, but is this necessary?
