SDK8.1 GPIOTE current draw

[Chris]

I just converted over from SDK8.0 to SDK8.1 to use the pwm library. After I was done, I figured out by searching on here that the GPIOTE is drawing ~1.1-1.2ma in sleep.

I assume this is from the change in the app_button library where it uses nrf_drv_gpiote vs app_gpiote?

The pwm library uses nrf_drv_gpiote too, but I don't care about extra current draw while pwm is active.

Do I need to port back and use the app_button library from sdk8.0?

Hi Chris

Can you point to the thread discussing the high current consumption for SDK 8.1.0?

My mistake, my current meter was acting up. I do have a question about disabling the app_pwm module, but I will start a new question for that.
