Guys, I would like to put the internal uC in sleeping mode while nRF51822 is advertising and wakeup him, when I establish a connection.
I know that is possible, it must be :) Is there any similar example that does this?

Hi Spirit
What happens when the nRF51 is advertising is that the chip wakes up periodically to advertise and is asleep in between. Actually, a BLE peripheral sends an advertising packet and then listens for a certain time for a possible incoming connection packet from a central device. If a connection packet is not received from a central device, the peripheral will go to sleep until there is time to send another advertising packet. More information on current consumption is in the current consumption guide.
