How to measure current consumption of nRF51822 microcontroller?

[kvrb]

Hi,

I am working on nRF51822 Microcontroller. I am not using any kind of stack I mean Bluetooth etc. I have a simple nRF51822 microcontroller and am running a simple application on it. I would loke to measure the power consumption of the microcontroller or board.

My application is running and displaying on hyper terminal. How can I measure power consumption of this microcontroller..?

Thanks

Hi,

Is your nRF51822 chip monted on a custom board or are you using any development/evaluation kits from Nordic? Check out this answer about general power measurement.

Best regards,

I have seen the link which you are provided.

I would like to know which pin of nRF51822 microcontroller is used to measure the current consumption..?
