nrf8002 high current consumption

I have a Jayconsystems breakout board for the nrf8002 bluetooth chip. Nothing is connected to the breakout board and the chip is unprogrammed. My current meter reads 6.0 mA @ 3.00V. This sounds very high compared to the average current calculated from nrfgostudio.

I got the same current reading (6mA @ 3.00V) with my own PCB which are more or less a copy of your reference design. It doesnt matter if I program the chip or not.

Any ideas?
