https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/76328/current-peaks-in-nrf52832-while-in-idleHi everybody, we are trying to bring our beacon&#39;s consumption as down as possible. We have nRF52832 mounted on our custom PCB with external 32 kHz crystal and DCDC is enabled at power on (see below). Using SDK 15.3 and S132 v6.1.

Do you have other components on the board that can be using power?&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/315170?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 14 Jun 2021 14:10:25 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:ee192769-9e3f-4b77-b72d-f195b0b2e408Lorenzo<p>Thanks Ivan,</p> <p>since it is an expected behaviour why is it not taken into account in the online power profiler?</p> <p>If this is the lower we can get then ok, we&#39;ll take it as it is. But if there&#39;s room for improvement we&#39;d like to go for it!<br /><br />Best regards</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/315150?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 14 Jun 2021 13:09:18 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:720e6234-e324-4a38-a8bd-b1074599cd7bIvan Herrera<p>This is expected behavior, see this post:</p> <p><a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/17370/auto-controlled-refresh-mode/66777#66777">devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../66777</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
