Power Optimization

[Ridhi]

Hello, 

I have a ble nrf52840 module. I want to make it as becon code  which is power optimized. Pls tell me the steps by which i can do that .Share some document or code that i can implement and also i can visualize the current consumption eventually.

Hi,

You can use the beacon example from the SDK. In addition you should use the online power profiler app to estimate the current consumption, and see how it change when you tweak the different parameters such as advertising interval and regulator configuration.

can you tell how to use online-power-profiler app with nrf52840

[Jared]

It's pretty straightforward. You just fill inn the details regarding what chip, advertising interval. clock configuration etc that you're using and you'll get the estimated current consumption.

 I want go deep in the topic of power optimization for a nrf52840 beacon. Pls help me that i can make a proper analysis of power consumption and provide necessary code changes

Hi,

I've already pointed out both a starting point for code and a tool that can be used to evaluate the code with regards to power.
