Custom Wio-E5-LE PCB draws 88 µA in sleep — datasheet says 2.1 µA

[Saarankan]

Hi everyone,

         I’m facing an issue with power consumption on my custom PCB that uses the Wio-E5-LE module. According to the datasheet, the module should consume around 2.1 µA in sleep mode, but my board is drawing around 88 µA instead. I’ve double-checked everything and can’t find any other source of leakage.

What i have already checked,

• Disabled all unused peripherals
• Configured all GPIOs properly
• Verified there are no shorts or solder bridges on the PCB
• Measured current draw of other components — none show any noticeable leakage

Which datasheet is that - the module's datasheet, or chip datasheet?
