 I know that is possible, it must be :)
Is there any similar example that does this?</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 04 May 2015 12:58:11 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/6834/uc-sleep-while-advertising-nrf51822" /><item><title>RE: uC sleep while advertising (nRF51822)</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/24086?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 04 May 2015 12:58:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:30011ba2-f896-4994-a71b-f5a527349dd1</guid><dc:creator>Stefan Birnir Sverrisson</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Spirit&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What happens when the nRF51 is advertising is that the chip wakes up periodically to advertise and is asleep in between. Actually, a BLE peripheral sends an advertising packet and then listens for a certain time for a possible incoming connection packet from a central device. If a connection packet is not received from a central device, the peripheral will go to sleep until there is time to send another advertising packet.  More information on current consumption is in the &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/5186/how-to-minimize-current-consumption-for-ble-application-on-nrf51822/#reply-5187"&gt;current consumption guide&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
