Hello,

I'm testing the powersave and deep sleep function on the QuickSilver evaluation board and I'm getting deceiving result.

I'm wondering if I'm doing thing wrong.

For now i've tested the powersave and deepsleep snippet that is included in the WICED SDK. And I'm measuring the current draw with a multimeter inline with the USB port. So every measurement is done at 5V level.

With the "snip.ping_deepsleep-Quicksilver_EVL download run" :

I'm getting 220 mA down to 180 mA in deepsleep.

With the "snip.ping_powersave-Quicksilver_EVL download run"

I'm getting 190 mA in powersave and  210 mA in ping .

and for comparaison with "snip.uart-Quicksilver_EVL download run" I get 190 mA.

I've tried a patch that PriyaM_16 posted on a problem in SDK 6.2 and it didn't solve the issue. (Getting very High current consumption in tcp_client_powersave application )

What can I do to improve the current consumption of the device ?
