The only downer is that it doesn&amp;#39;t supply the actual power numbers it just specifies what different things are drawing current. But you can pull those numbers from the nRF51 Product Spec and add them up. See section 8 of the Product Spec.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As for the idle current, see section 8 of the nRF51 Product Spec as well, table 32.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
