 I have an issue with power consuption. I work with the SDK15.2.0 and the SoftDevice S140 on a custom board. 
 I launch the ble_app_pwr_profiling example on the board, I go straight on sd_app_evt_waitt(), and measure the current consumption</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 25 Sep 2019 13:09:58 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/52114/high-power-consumption-ble" /><item><title>RE: High power consumption BLE</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/211841?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 25 Sep 2019 13:09:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2eb16a67-a4d9-4647-98ed-0472eb999bfc</guid><dc:creator>Etienne</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi, thank you for your response.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So since you say it goes straight to sd_app_evt_wait() i assume that you are pushing button 1, and the chip will start to advertise. The default advertising parameters in the example are:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;#define CONNECTABLE_ADV_INTERVAL&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; MSEC_TO_UNITS(20, UNIT_0_625_MS)
#define APP_CFG_ADV_DATA_LEN&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; 31&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With an advertising interval of 20ms and a payload of 31 bytes the expected average current is 564µA @3V with DCDC enabled: &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/power"&gt;https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/power&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
