Comparison of Advertising Current for XIAO nRF54L15, nRF52840, and MG24

Hi there,

SO , I see this is the Latest Test data in from The Vikings’ :skier:

Radio Section Updates.

Bluetooth LE

Scenario nRF54L15/10/05 nRF52840
Bluetooth LE TX 1 Mbps +8 dBm 9.8 mA 16.4 mA
Bluetooth LE TX 1 Mbps 0 dBm 4.8 mA 6.4 mA
Bluetooth LE RX 1 Mbps 3.4 mA 6.4 mA
Advertising 30ms 122.81 µA 164.03 µA
Advertising 200ms 24.22 µA 30.48 µA
Advertising 2000ms 5.14 µA 5.89 µA
Connected 0 data 14.44 µA 19.25 µA
Connected ~50kB/s 1.45 mA 1.87 mA
Connected ~100kB/s 2.91 mA 3.69 mA
Connected ~150kB/s 4.33 mA 5.51 mA
Connected Max 4.98 mA 6.36 mA

Advertising: A beacon with device name, no other data, no scan response

Connected: Peripheral Nordic UART service

Processing efficiency: Solving 1M quadratic equations, looping every 2 seconds.

Thread (802.15.4)

Let’s take a look at the average sleep current for the two devices running Thread 1.4, in two different scenarios:

Scenario nRF54L15/10/05 nRF52840
Sleepy End Device TX 0 dBm with 1-second polling period 2.75 μA 3.56 μA
Synchronized Sleepy End Device with 1-second CSL period 2.75 μA 3.58 μA

The nRF54L Series has approximately 23% less average sleep current than the nRF52840 SoC.

See the Power consumption data for the total charge per minute and the average data poll charge.

Good stuff and strong effort to bring true Battery powered BLE as a standard.
