 I am using 5340 but it&amp;#39;s uart consumes a lot of power 2.01mA 
 
 
 SDK: NCS2.1.0 
 project: peripheral_uart 
 
 I have disabled all other peripheral equipment,put all gpio to low , adv interval changed to 1000ms, power is 0dbm.Personally I think</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 27 Sep 2022 00:49:39 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/92259/5340-uart-power-high" /><item><title>RE: 5340 uart power high</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/388021?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 27 Sep 2022 00:49:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:f46ef935-8dc9-4684-aa49-2b71ba538edd</guid><dc:creator>Август</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your quick response.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have used nsc1.8.0 &lt;span&gt;peripheral_uart&amp;nbsp;before, It&amp;#39;s about 719uA.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Can you give me some advice, thank you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/4/pastedimage1664239727288v3.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: 5340 uart power high</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/387799?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 26 Sep 2022 07:04:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2040bd7f-0ed3-4e96-a92f-457b3aa33b2d</guid><dc:creator>Kenneth</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not tested your project, but a power consumption of ~2mA sounds reasonable right if the UART driver is continously ready to receive data on RXD pin.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You will need to duty cycle the UART driver by for instance using some kind of handshaking signal to reduce current consumption. An example of low power uart implementation is found in:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.0.0/nrf/samples/peripheral/lpuart/README.html"&gt;https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.0.0/nrf/samples/peripheral/lpuart/README.html&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.0.0/nrf/drivers/uart_nrf_sw_lpuart.html"&gt;https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.0.0/nrf/drivers/uart_nrf_sw_lpuart.html&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While the RDY line is high the UART RXD will be disabled, for more information see the above documentation.&lt;/p&gt;
