 Just wanted to confirm what the average current measured by the PPK represents. So for example if I have AVG in average window as 2.5mA, is that only the BLE (i.e. transmission) current or all of the MCU including any active peripherals?

&lt;p&gt;Q: So for example if I have AVG in average window as 2.5mA, is that only the BLE (i.e. transmission) current or all of the MCU including any active peripherals?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A: It will include all the current drawn by the nRF52832, including active peripherals. So if you are using e.g. PWM or SPI, this will increase the current consumption.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For more information see the &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/PPK_User_Guide_v1.0.pdf"&gt;PPK user guide&lt;/a&gt;. Also make sure that when you do measurement on the DK that the both power select and DUT is on &amp;quot;DK&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
