While advertising I could see some increased current peaks on one of the three channels. Its random and is observed mostly at the first or last channel of advertising.
Any idea what could be the reason? Does the nearby scanning device affect the power consumption? I am using nordic nrf52832 chip.
Attached are some screenshots that show an advertising sequence where I captured 3 larger peaks along with zoomed in views of each of those larger peaks.
Hi Kenneth,
We captured 3 screenshots using the same scale that shows a normal advertising current pulse, the slightly higher pulse that we saw before which we associated with the scan response, and the new higher amplitude pulse that we observed and don’t know what it is.
We see the higher amplitude pulse occur during the channel 37 activity. With the Ellisys BLE sniffer, it does not appear that this is linked to a scan response.
Is there anything that we are not counting for?
