BLE shutoff

[Bar]

Hello.

We are running an application without BLE at this stage. We measure about 20ma at run time also by the datasheet max is 6ma.

We were thinking that because we don't close the BLE(we don't use any command of the BLE, include no softdevice mounting), the rx or tx are open and rise the current with 14ma mioore.

1. What is the default state of the BLE if not use?

2. How we can lower the current on regular run from FLASH?

Regards

Bar.

Hi,

1. The Radio peripheral will not consume any current if its not enabled. The radio will be disabled in its default state. 
2. What state is the nRF in when you measure the current? Are you using a custom board or the development kit? The Power management example in the SDK shows how to use Power management library.
