nRF52832 current measurement

[Bene]

Hello everbody,

I made some current measurements with mit DK nRF52 and the nRF52832 Chip. Everythings works fine, but I always get "peaks", as you can see on the Picture below. (the blue one). I use the Multilink example in combination with the blinky example.

What is the reason for these "peaks"? Is the a possibility to Switch it off?

Best regards, and thanks in advance, Bene

Hi,

If you are running the ble_app_multilink_central example, then the nRF52832 will be scanning for peripherals very often. It's therefore turning the RADIO peripheral off and on very often, and you will see these peaks when the RADIO is on. Here is a measurement I did with the Power-Profiler Kit:
