If its timing is disrupted, it will raise "assertion failed" errors. There's two common mistakes to avoid: (temporarily) disabling the softdevice's interrupts, and running your interrupts at too high priority. +These mistakes WILL cause "assertion failed" errors, 100% guaranteed. If you do these only "a little bit", such as disabling all interrupts but for very short periods of time only, things may appear to work, but you will get "assertion failed" errors after hours +of running. Make sure to follow them to the letter. + ### Critical sections Interrupts for certain peripherals and SWI/EGUs are [reserved for the SoftDevice](https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sds_s140/SDS/s1xx/sd_resource_reqs/hw_block_interrupt_vector.html?cp=4_7_4_0_6_0). Interrupt handlers for them are reserved by the softdevice, the handlers in your application won't be called. |
