reducing RAM consumption and current

[buja]

Hi Team,

SDK- nRF5_SDK_17.0.2_d674dde

SD - s112_nrf52_7.2.0

chip - nRF52810

I would like to reduce the power consumption during systemON by disabling unused sections of RAM. And hence I am trying to reduce the code size as less possible.

The code section is taking around 38KB and Data+RO section around 115KB. I see that many drivers which I am not using are getting compiled and added to the binary.  

Can you please guide me to reduce the RAM consumption further and the procedure to disable the RAM sections as per the code ?

Note that code is stored in Flash - not RAM.

Is the RAM's current consumption actually going to be significant in System ON?

They might be compiled, but not added to the binary - check linker options.

If they're really not used, then don't compile them.
