Current consumption 5.1.3

5.1.3.1 Test setup

The board used in the test presented optimal RF performance. The integrated printed antenna was

used to perform the measurements.

Following instruments were used for the test:

● Multimeter

● 3 V, 100 mA power source

● Agilent N6705B

The current profiles were evaluated using proximity reporter firmware with embedded PA control.

During this test the Advertisement, Connection and Extended Sleep modes were evaluated.

5.1.3.2 Advertisement mode

For this measurement the DUT was supplied by 3 V. FW was downloaded and the JTAG

programmer and then it was disconnected.
