 I was reading the procedure to prepare the NRF52 DK board for current measuring and some questions came into my mind. I understand we have to open the P22 so we interrupt the circuit to measure the flowing current. But then it says to bypass the</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2017 11:44:17 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/19238/current-measurement-on-the-pca-10040-v1-1-0-nrf52" /><item><title>RE: Current measurement on the PCA 10040 v1.1.0 (NRF52)</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/74543?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2017 11:44:17 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2f673eda-b238-4dd6-a27a-f3798c06ab77</guid><dc:creator>Stian R&amp;#248;ed Hafskjold</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi, it is correct that both VDD and VDD_nRF is after the diode, so there shouldn&amp;#39;t be anything that has different voltage levels. I guess the only purpose of bypassing the diode is to get rid of the voltage drop. It is not very big, but if you want to know the exact voltage you are measuring on it could be an idea to bypass it. Or you could just measure the voltage after the diode and adjust the input voltage accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
