&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your help.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: SAADC Battery Measurement Low Outliers</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/365755?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 02 May 2022 12:02:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c1215d7a-550c-43d4-91d6-1644f0ff3c5f</guid><dc:creator>Edvin</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Can you please share what your battery_level_save() function looks like?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I see that you are doing this on a custom board. Did you test it on a DK as well? Do you see the same behavior there?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Are you powering anything else from your nRF?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Did you try to measure the VDD voltage using another tool when the low level occurs? Does the voltage actually drop?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Can you think of anything other in your application&amp;nbsp;that can draw current around every 7 minutes?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edvin&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
