Hardware Watchdog on MESH Devices?

General
1

I searched docs but only came up with “Software Watchdog” info.

Does anybody know if we got the “Hardware Watchdog” support on the new MESH devices?

@RWB, the nRF52840 has a hardware WDT (watchdog timer) but I do not know if and how it will be used by Particle or how it is supported by the Nordic softdevice stack. The WDT can be configured to generate an interrupt or to reset the MCU. It can also be paused for long sleep periods (or during debugging).

Thanks for the info.

The HWD was the only feature I missed from the good old Arduino Uno I started with.

It’s early for MESH so maybe we will get this feature in the future.
