4.3.3 Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® Low Energy Co-operation Current Consumption

The PIC32CX-BZ2 and WINCS02IC on the PIC32WM-BW1 Module share the same power supply path, following is the measured current consumption from the Module V_DD pin.

1. Current consumption measurements correspond to Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® Low Energy operating in co-operation with PTA
2. The internal RF test firmware configures Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy SoCs into specific operating mode for measurement.
