Creating a load on a battery using the radio

[JZone]

I am in a need to measure a battery level under a constant load. Rather than adding a custom electronics, I am considering using the radio. I believe there is a way of doing that (see https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/samples/peripheral/radio_test/README.html).

For my use case I need something very simple, that could be embedded in our standard, production software. Would you please advise on the right register configuration ?

Thanks for the response. I need more than that. 10 to 20mA would be ideal.

Hi!

Then putting the radio in TX is likely the option.

Could you elaborate on how this should work in practice?

Would it be something used in your normal application hex?

Would it be some test-mode you put the chip into, instead of booting the normal application?

Or something that you would need to do every x amount of time while running the normal application?
