nRF51822 unprogrammed power consumption

[barry.haworth]

We are developing a new BLE tag product using the nRF51822. We would like to assemble the PCB and battery in a single operation then program the product sometime later. Can anybody please advise what the unprogrammed power consumption is of the nRF51822 configured in DC2DC converter buck mode? Our concern is that the unprogrammed nRF51822 will flatten the battery. Many thanks!

Thanks John and Michael for your feedback. Very helpful indeed, we will investigate Michael's expectations of the current and take it from there.

Once again, thanks guys
