In that position, the nRF52833&#39;s high-voltage regulator is supplied directly from the Li-Po battery connector.&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span>Can you send me the picture of your setup?</span></p> <p><span>Have you followed this guideline&nbsp;<a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ug_ppk2/page/UG/ppk/setting_up.html">Setting up the Power Profiler Kit II</a>&nbsp;while setting the DK for measuring current?</span></p> <p><span>Thanks.</span></p> <p><span>BR</span></p> <p><span>KZI</span></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
