Power Analyzer over a 50 sec period: (Measured by Nordic)

In Advertising (interval 1000ms), the SoC can be worked avg. 26uA with the LED blink (flash code running).

384 Days working with a CR2032 battery (240mA/H)

Tickless Technology Applied : Power Consumption average--> 26.25uA

Tickless Technology Not Applied: Power Concumption average -->300uA
