How can I measure the sleep current for nRf5340

[shreya lingayat]

I have DK of nRF5340, I want to get started with it and create the development env, as well as I need to measure the sleep current for this module?

Any quick tutorial which I could follow to create development env?

f you remove the jumper on those pins and put a amp meter in between (a regular multimeter can do this), you can measure the current the device uses.

I did find the doc explaining different ways to measure the current consumption,

Out of available sample for nRF5340, which could be the best sample if I want to know current consumption in sleep mode?

hello,

You can try to  run the system_off sample (\NCS\v2.6.0\zephyr\samples\boards\nrf\system_off) to measure the sleep current.

Here is the https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nrf5340_dk/UG/dk/hw_measure_current.html?cp=4_0_4_5 ways described in our product specification about current measurement on nRF5340 DK.

While trying to install SDK to program  DK with the sample you mentioned above, I'm always running into the same above error, 

I have also given try for v2.6.0, same behavior, any suggestion to pass this hurdle?
