BLE low power calculation

[jun]

Hi

I am calculating the power consumption using

devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

But there is some point that I don't understand.

When the BLE event type is "Peripheral Connection", at the last stage "System On IDLE", does the BLE peripheral keep connected? If not, the calculation included the power that needs to re-connect?

Thanks

This is the average current during connection. The system ON IDLE is the idle current between the BLE events. You can choose a packet payload and get the average value over an interval. During a "re-connect" things will look pretty much the same, only that the payload in the BLE events will vary with what is needed to transmit in order to establish a connection. (you will also get an RX payload on some of the BLE events, but this is not possible to add to the calculation, unfortunately)
