sleep(60000); // Sleeps for a minute in deep sleep
Thanks! That's a big improvement. I'm now reading 51uA. I did the measurements on the Ebyte nRF52832 module, powering it at 3.3v.
However, to be frank, that's still rather high compared to, say, an atmega328p with a RFM69 radio, which can have a combined sleep current of less than 1uA.
Is there anything more that can be done to lower the sleep current further?

@rmtucker said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:
Is that a bare board with nothing connected (Not even serial)?
Yes. It's the bare Ebyte nRF52832 module. The only connections are Vcc and GND.

Interestingly, I just now tried the same measurement with one of these nRF52832 modules instead of the Ebyte module:

and during sleep it measured 6uA. Quite a bit lower!Anyone know of a module which tests even lower than that?

Did you use the same board definition in the IDE and the same script ?

Have you tried sleep and wait for an external interrupt instead of sleep and wake on timer?
Just in case it is the lfxtl that is causing the problem.@rmtucker said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:

Just in case it is the lfxtl that is causing the problem.Haven't tried that yet. Is there a library functional call for that, or do I need to start addressing the registers directly? With this new mpu, I feel like I'm learning to walk all over again.

Try
sleep(digitalPinToInterrupt(10), FALLING,0);Unexpected result: using that as the sleep invocation, the infor-link module measures at 14ua while sleeping. i.e. worse, not better, compared to the 6ua measured earlier.
-
Looks as though the infor-link is using an A620N crystal:
I tried to see if I could find a datasheet for it, in the hope of learning what its current consumption is (or, at least, should be). Unfortunately, though, I couldn't find a datasheet for an A620N. -
Maybe from a current consumption standpoint, not using an external XTAL crystal, but rather relying on the nRF52832's internal resonator would draw less current? I know that's true for the atmega328p. If so, then that's a trade-off worth examining more carefully.
-
Maybe it doesn't matter, because in looking at the actual module I received, it appears to use a different XTAL anyway: A649N.
Sorry i have been a little distracted because my waveshare BLE400 and jlink just turned up.
Took a little time to get it running but i loaded up the mockmysensors sketch with all the sensors un commented and pow all 30 odd sensors showed up in domoticz which made me chuckle.
Anyway post your sketch for the consumption testing and i will put it in and see if it works on my board.
The only problem is i can not unplug it from the Ble400 because i have no way of connecting wires to the core board because of the smaller pitch pins. -

You'll need a separate serial gateway running for it to communicate with, or else it will never get to the section where it sleeps. -
Sorry i have been a little distracted because my waveshare BLE400 and jlink just turned up.
Took a little time to get it running but i loaded up the mockmysensors sketch with all the sensors un commented and pow all 30 odd sensors showed up in domoticz which made me chuckle.
Anyway post your sketch for the consumption testing and i will put it in and see if it works on my board.
The only problem is i can not unplug it from the Ble400 because i have no way of connecting wires to the core board because of the smaller pitch pins.@rmtucker said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:

For the current measurement, just program it with the above sketch on your Waveshare, then unplug your module from the BLE400 board and power it using a GND dupont wire and a Vcc dupont wire connected through your uCurrent Gold, or whatever it is that you're using to measure current. I should think that would work, wouldn't it?
Or do you only have the main board without the smaller plug-in module?
It actually looks like a nice setup.

When you unplug the little board it only has 1.27mm spaced pins and they are not standard dupont size so shy soldering to them which would mean i could not plug it back in to the BLE.
Anyway i am only using a crappy multimeter and with it plugged in and running your sketch i am getting 140uA but i will find a way of unplugging it so hang fire. -

@rmtucker you could try to just solder 2 tiny wires on top of the board for vcc and gnd pins so you don't mess with the connectors for plugin it back on the main board ?
