120mA current consumption when supply external 3V3 power - Nucleo-WL55JC1 (CN6)

When you power Nucleo-WL55JC! with external 3V3 via CN6, I could see constant 120mA current consumption. Is there any way we can reduce this?

Hello @digidhamu​ ,

Sorry for the late reply

I tested the power consumption of a nucleo board with the end_node project and my consumption were around 20mA when we did a Tx and a below 200uA when nothing happen.

Don't you have any expansion board connected to the nucleo ?

Best regards

Thanks @Louis AUDOLY​ I didn't connect any expansion board. Would it possible to send picture of your setup and this will help me to report you back faster?
