https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/55232/high-current-with-gpioteHi there, I added the GPIOTE driver for the project ble_app_blinky_c under the SDK13, where if I enable GPIOTE my current consumption in sleep mode jumps from 3uA to 5mA The only thing I did to my program was adding the GPIOTE driver and enableen-USTelligent Community 13Fri, 06 Dec 2019 09:49:51 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/224108?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 06 Dec 2019 09:49:51 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:ba8ecce4-17eb-4392-8344-339e366244a9J&#248;rgen Holmefjord<p>Can you post the complete project, for us to reproduce and debug this?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/223921?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 05 Dec 2019 13:33:39 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c7c56340-3906-4299-bba6-da7fe136419eArepa<p>Hi Jorgen. I added this to my project and also to a project example central&nbsp;<span>ble_app_blinky_c to compare if the same behavior occurs. In both cases I had the same result an increase in the current consumption&nbsp;</span></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/223805?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 05 Dec 2019 09:22:09 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:4597ea5e-1dc4-4dbe-9ed0-ca1b2df5eaabJ&#248;rgen Holmefjord<p>Hi,</p> <p>Did the current increase from 3 uA to 5 mA just by adding GPIOTE to the application? 5 mA indicates to me that the CPU is not entering sleep mode at all. Can you share your project?</p> <p>The GPIOTE example in peripherals directory do not call __WFE(), and will thus never enter sleep mode. It is therefore not a surprise that this has a high current consumption. The example is showing how to use the GPIOTE to toggle pins without CPU intervention, it is not intended as a low-power example.</p> <p>Best regards,<br />Jørgen</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
