Custom Board makes high current in BLE Example

Dear Nordic,

We have a custom board and we just flashing BLE central peripheral example on it's 

works fine but when i test its current consumption its shows around 1.5 Ampere 

I need some help to reduce the current consumption

  • turn off debug log: in sdk_config.h  set #define  NRF_LOG_ENABLED 0,  that's for reducing power consumption by SoC itself.

    but 1,5 A seems to much anyway, maybe that's some mistake in scheme or soldering. with that consumption you can find source of leakage even by checking temperature of elements. just leave the board working for some time, then turn off and check what element became warm.
