nRF8001 Product Specification
Revision 1.2
12.4 Current consumption parameters
The nRF8001 static current consumption is defined in Table 14. and Table 15. The dynamic current
consumption is defined in Figure 15. on page 37
.
The operating conditions are: VDD = 3.0V, T
A
= 40ºC to +85ºC. The numbers in the column called
Reference to figures 17 and 19 in Table 14. and Table 15. refer to the numbers found in Figure 17. on
page 39 and Figure 19. on page 41.
