NRF8001 Consuming approx 6.2mA in advertise modehttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/2135/nrf8001-consuming-approx-6-2ma-in-advertise-modeI&#39;m running a custom nrf8001 board and the nrf8001 is consuming approx 6.2mA on it&#39;s own in advertisement mode using the uart demo. Has anyone had this same problem? Any advice? Circuit diagram is attached.

This is the weird part.</p> <p>At power on: 6.2mA After setup and in advertisement 265uA After connection 303uA After disconnection and back to advertisement 37uA!!!???!?!</p> <p>Why does the first cycle of connect and disconnect take so much power and why is it not consistent?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
