nrf52832 RX current comsumption Breakdown

Question

I use nrf52832. 
 Document written, 
 -------------------------------------------------------------------- RX current comsumption is IRADIO_RX0 Radio RX@1Mb/s BluetoothLowEnergymode, Clock=HFXO current=6.5 mA -------------------------------------------------------------------- I found following, IRX,1M,DCDC RX only run current (DCDC, 3V) 1Msps / 1Msps BLE 5.4mA IHFXO RunCurrent 250uA ITIMER_16M RunCurrent 16MHzClockInput(PCLK16M) Max 120uA -------------------------------------------------------------------- total = 5.77mA 6.5mA - 5.77mA = 0.73mA [0.73mA] I can not found. Where are these consumed?

The chip will automatically turn ON and OFF various regulators and clocks internally as required by the various peripherals that is enabled or active at any time. There are some typically current consumption values for the complete system on chip for various operational modes in the datasheet, but the power management in the chip is very complex, so there is no detailed description of what each individual block in the chip draw in the the various operational mode no, it would be to complex to provide in any reasonable way.
