https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/23374/current-consumption-of-nrf52-dkHi, I measured the current consumption of nRF52DK with the original code of &quot;nRF5_SDK_13.0.0_04a0bfd\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon &quot;, based on the current measurement guidelines. The results is that the current in the system on idle mode isen-USTelligent Community 13Mon, 10 Jul 2017 16:58:37 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/91880?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 10 Jul 2017 16:58:37 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:affffd07-0f76-4d60-a175-1a244ffa7442Sigurd<p>Hi,</p> <p>I&#39;m measuring ~ 1.83 µA in System ON(idle) mode for this example with external 32kHz crystal, which is close to the expected value. With internal RC expected current consumption is 2.2 µA. See <a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/95530/current-consumption-with-sd_app_evt_wait/?answer=95636#post-id-95636">this post</a> for more information on that. You will have to disable the SoftDevice, and turn off the LFCLK/RTC in order to get 1.5µA.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
