Current consumption of nRF51822 DevKit

Hi, I´ve programmed the nRF51822 DevKit´s module (PCA10004) with S110 SoftDevice and example <ble_app_pwr_profiling>. In SystemOffMode I measure a current consumption of about 20µA, but I expected <1µA. Is this the current consumption of the additional INA216 amplifier ?

  • Hi,

    I am having some similar problem with the PCA10001 v1.0. Between advertising peaks, I measure a current of 25-30uA while 3uA are expected. Do you have an explanation for that?

  • Sorry, I thought that the title of the topic corresponded exactly to the problem I am having (as PCA10001 also belongs to the Devkit) and that a solution to it in this topic would have simplified the search of a similar problem for a developer. However P8 was removed during the measurements, thus I will open a new post, you can delete this one and the previous if you want.
