 for a low-power application, I need to evaluate the total power consumption of the nRF52840 Dev Kit. To verify my measurements, I set one of the GPIOs to toggle from high to low. I tried then to measure the current like described here</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 19 Aug 2021 13:49:48 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/78710/how-do-i-measure-the-total-power-consumption-of-the-nrf52840dk-gpios-included" /><item><title>RE: How do I measure the total power consumption of the nRF52840DK, GPIOs included.</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/325770?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 19 Aug 2021 13:49:48 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:ed75b5d4-6567-4d1f-9215-26064cb829b0</guid><dc:creator>Carl Richard</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have setup the board according to the &lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nrf52840_dk/UG/dk/hw_measure_current.html?cp=4_0_4_8"&gt;Measuring Current documentation&lt;/a&gt; you should be able to measure MCU&amp;#39;s total current consumption, including GPIOs. Have you cut SB40 (as instructed in &lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nrf52840_dk/UG/dk/prepare_board.html?cp=4_0_4_8_0"&gt;Preparing the DK&lt;/a&gt;)?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I noticed that you linked to the setup instructions for the nRF52832DK. Please make sure that you follow the instructions meant for the nRF52840DK, which I linked above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;Carl Richard&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
