[136] System: Bits in RESETREAS are set when they should not be

This anomaly applies to IC Rev. Engineering D, build codes CKAA-DA0, QIAA-DA0, QFAA-Dx0.

It was inherited from the previous IC revision Revision 1.

Symptoms

After pin reset, RESETREAS bits other than RESETPIN might also be set.

Conditions

A pin reset has triggered.

Consequences

If the firmware evaluates RESETREAS, it might take the wrong action.

Workaround

When RESETREAS shows a pin reset (RESETPIN), ignore other reset reason bits.
Important: RESETREAS bits must be cleared between resets.
Apply the following code after any reset:
 
if (NRF_POWER->RESETREAS & POWER_RESETREAS_RESETPIN_Msk){
    NRF_POWER->RESETREAS =  ~POWER_RESETREAS_RESETPIN_Msk;
}
This workaround is implemented in MDK version 8.13.0 and later.
