Have I damaged my nRF52832 Dev Kit?

Rick

I have been analyzing the current consumption of my nRF52832 dev kit today using both a multi meter and an oscilloscope with a resistor. I'm not sure what I exactly did that lead to this, but now my board constantly uses 80mA. It can still be programmed and it does seem to run. Did my board get damaged somehow? If so, can it still be fixed?

Edit: What could have happened is that the dev kit was powered for a short time without a jumper on P22 (also no short on SB9 nor resistor on R6). Not sure what this could do to the board.

Edit2: The issue was temporarily fixed by replace the nRF52832 chip on the dev board but now it's back again. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

    Neither SB10 or SB11 are shorted. I measure current on P22, sometimes with a multi meter and sometimes with a scope. When using the scope I put a header pin on P22 that has a 10 or 100 ohm resistor between the two pins. That way I don't have to solder/desolder R6 all the time. The chip is functional. Both my own code and the examples work fine and I can connect to it with my phone.
