Hi,

[quote user="Nick_RA"]is there any documentation on power consumption? Specifically for LE audio source or unicast + advertising.[/quote]

Unfortunately, we don't have such data. The power consumption would be different depending on the configuration like bitrate, retransmission times ..., etc., so it is hard to give a solid value.

[quote user="Nick_RA"]Is there a roadmap date when this is expected to mature?[/quote]

Please contact your regional sales manager or use the form of Sales related questions for the roadmap/schedule.

Thank you, I'll look at the docs. One further question if I may as I don't yet have a 5340DK - is there any documentation on power consumption? Specifically for LE audio source or unicast + advertising. The 5340 is included in your online power profiler but not for LE audio modes it seems.

Edit: I notice from the SDK docs that audio applications are marked Experimental and as such not recommended for production. Is there a roadmap date when this is expected to mature? I'm researching for a commercial production application so this really puts me back to the original question.

Hi,

You can use the nRF5340 Audio DK (HW) and nRF Connect SDK (SW) to start the Auracast development without requiring additional third-party protocol stacks. The nRF5340 Audio documentation includes sample applications and guides for implementing LE Audio features.
