https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/17805/nrf52-dk-high-current-consumptionHi, I am trying to measure the current consumption on my application, and measured some quite high values even after calling sd_app_evt_wait(). After reading through some similar questions here I tried to use the System on/off mode examples as mentioneden-USTelligent Community 13Thu, 05 Jan 2017 14:58:14 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/68629?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 05 Jan 2017 14:58:14 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:180ff552-ac63-440f-8dc1-e0eb4cdf4681Stian R&#248;ed Hafskjold<p>Measuring current with an oscilloscope in differential mode is not that easy. It might just be that it&#39;s not accurate enough. Seems like you get a lot of noise there. You can check out <a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/tutorials/27/">this post</a> for some tips on how to set up the equipment.</p> <p>First, you should check with a simple amperemeter (like one of the cheap general purpose multimeters; they can usually measure quite accurate down to around 1uA) to see if you actually get 450uA.</p> <p>Then, you should connect both probes on the oscilloscope to the same side of the measurement resistor. If differential voltage is not 0 then you have an error in the measurement which will give you an idea on how accurate you are able to measure.</p> <p>Make sure that the offset on both channels are equal and similar to the battery voltage (3V). Use 1x attenuation on the probes to reduce noise.</p> <p>In many cases just using a simple multimeter is a good way to measure current.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
