Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) beyond nRF use

[refer_pin]

Hello,

Is the Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) only usable for nRF product line and custom boards, or can it be use beyond the nRF line of products such as boards not made by Nordic Semi?

Hi, 

This provides support for both short range applications on our nRF51, nRF52 and nRF53 Series, in addition to our nRF91 Series cellular SiP with headroom to spare for additional circuit draw, e.g. an nRF9160 DK with attached sensors.

So can I use use it to measure power consumption of boards that don't have nRF chips in them?

[Amanda Hsieh]

Unfortunately, we don't test that, and I am afraid we don't provide the support for that use case.

Although not supported, the PPK2 can measure any circuit within the boundaries of the PPK2 specification (<1A, 0.8-5V)
