Is the DC/DC converter enabled when running ble_app_beacon?

Is the DC/DC converter enabled when running ble_app_beacon?

Or is it only the LDO that is enabled?

I am running the application on nRF51822-DK.

DC/DC is not enabled by default in the 'ble_app_beacon' example. You should also check out this thread on DC/DC: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/685/ldo-vs-dcdc-nrf51822/

There is no direct relationship between the LDO and system off mode, but when nothing uses the analog 1.8V, it will be turned off. Since the radio is turned off in system off mode, the 1.8V will also be turned off, so I guess there is an indirect correlation between those. We don't provide any detailed information on the LDO except what you can find in the product specification. Sorry about that.
