 I want to measure the current draw of the MCU only on the nRF52840DK while I am running my custom code. I want to exclude the current draw of all components except for the nRF52840 itself from my current measurement.

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I do not know your timing parameters, but have you tried to put them into the&amp;nbsp;online power profiler to see if you get similar results?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remember to adjust for the TX payload size when advertising.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kind regards,&lt;/p&gt;
