&lt;p&gt;By default, the ble_app_hrs example does not enable the UART. The NRF_LOG and UART is enabled by calling the function NRF_LOG_INIT(). It should be enough to just comment out this function to not use the UART/not enable it. I did a quick measurement with DCDC enabled, by not calling NRF_LOG_INIT() the power-consumption is 90µA.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
