Other than USB or serial communcations.en-USTelligent Community 13Thu, 20 Oct 2016 09:31:28 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/66061?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 20 Oct 2016 09:31:28 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:0a1647a5-8b61-4117-849c-54e7d326c923Sigurd<p>No, the components themselves does not increase the power consumption. The power consumption only increase if you are actually using the components actively, e.g. flashing the LED.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
