Current consumption is relatively high on nRF52 vs nRF51; nRF51 is configured with SDK 10.0 and nRF52 with SDK 12.2. Current draw for nRF51 using the example code for heart rate monitor averagesen-USTelligent Community 13Sun, 12 Mar 2017 05:39:48 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/79465?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 12 Mar 2017 05:39:48 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:71cf6a1a-c961-4571-83f3-39545456f3a3Will<p>Darren, Both DKs were not in debug mode; USB were used to power and collect data. Please review the notes that I left for Daniel for addition info. Thanks.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/79463?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 12 Mar 2017 05:36:32 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:24fe449a-d4f2-4859-b0de-4f68fff3ba05Will<p>Daniel, thanks for your response. The DKs were not in debug mode. BTW, USB connectivity were used to power and collect data from both DKs. In fact the test environment for both DKs were identical. So, why are the test results different? Could you suggest an area in SDK that I study to understand/reduce current consumption? Again, Nordic example code for proximity and heart monitor were used to evaluate current draw.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/79464?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 10 Mar 2017 21:48:09 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c8d6f33e-36ad-4d12-ae03-237445df793bWestCoastDaz<p>Will,</p> <p>Have disconnected the debugger? How are you powering the PPK and DK?</p> <p>Cheers, Darren</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/79462?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 10 Mar 2017 21:47:39 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:05424035-239d-4f67-ae63-536ddb1f42b4Daniel Wang<p>maybe you are in debug mode? try to power-cycle the board(turning it off/on again)</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
