BME 688 + nrf52832 low power modes

[Ayashkant123]

Hi,

When I am using BME688 in low power mode the sensor is consuming around 9mA and after sleep going to sleep the current it draws is same. I have attached the file where where in the callback function after receiving all the data I am sending the sensor in sleep mode but still it draws 9mA of current. Please help me on this.

These are the remaining files I am using

Hi Ayashkant123,

Is the current of 9 mA only the current of the sensor or the current of the whole machine?
How do you confirm that the system has entered low-power mode?

[Ayashkant123]

Only in the sensor reading phase the current consumption is showing at around 4mA-18mA while in the rest of the time it is around 0-1mA.

Hi Ayashkant123,

You could run original example code with sample rate BSEC_SAMPLE_RATE_LP and test sensor current. Compare the current with the value which run your code.
