 I am trying to optimize my nrf52840 application for power consumption. If I run simple loop using nrf5 SDK i get ~1.2mA. However with similiar code on Zephyr: I get ~1.7mA. I understand that Zephyr kernel configures some peripherals even before</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 02 Apr 2025 11:48:08 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/120364/increased-power-consumption-after-start-up" /><item><title>RE: Increased power consumption after start up</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/530221?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 02 Apr 2025 11:48:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:a0ae585b-983b-45f8-8012-b17ac19f9d84</guid><dc:creator>Priyanka</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Michal,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I guess the 1.7mA in Zephyr is&amp;nbsp;mostly because of the&amp;nbsp;background activity from the RTT console, I2C, ADC, Bluetooth, and RTC peripherals. YOu have all these enabled in your prj.conf. So I would suggest you to disable the ones that are unused and you should be able to see a difference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;
