Are there continuous and transient limits on how much current can be drawn? 
 We are powering peripherals from these pins and we haven&amp;#39;t had any problems if they are directly connected</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 17 Oct 2022 11:51:35 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/92880/nrf52840-current-draw-limitations-from-vdd-pins" /><item><title>RE: nrf52840 Current draw limitations from VDD pins</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/390985?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 17 Oct 2022 11:51:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:1ced0bf1-2b2c-49b5-9013-79c5985cfc2f</guid><dc:creator>ketiljo</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;When you close the load switch, you will probably charge the caps and cause the VDD line to drop below the brown out threshold so that the device resets. Have you looked at the VDD line with a scope to see what happens when you close the switch?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
