Power Consmuption issue in nrf51 during advertising packets

[Brajesh]

Hi All,

My goal is to advertise the generic packets untill a GPIO interrupt occurs. So in order to achieve low power consumption I have increased the time interval of those packets being advertised from 40ms to 3 seconds. While scanning i am able to see the packets in every 3 sec, but as intended i don't see any reduction in power consumption. With both the intervals, it consumes same 10mA. Am i missing something on this, please suggest.

Any suggestion would be well appreciated.

Thanks

@Hung Bui,

It can vary how long we keep it in Connected mode, it can vary from 10 seconds to 2-3 hours or even more, but for now it is just for testing purpose and CPU is on all the time the device is connected, or if you are asking something else please let me know , I didn't get it exactly. I would try the SDK example and will come up with stats. Thanks :)
