LAUNCHXL-CC1352R1: Power_shutdown() function with DMM is not working

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC1352R1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ENERGYTRACE, CC1352R

Greetings,

I am using "dmm_wsnnode_remote_display" example from SDK "simplelink_cc13x2_sdk_2_20_00_71". I need to switch the device to shutdown mode and wake it up on a GPIO input (similar to "pinShutdown" example).

I tried to use the function "Power_shutdown(0, 0)" as the example, but the current consumption is still high! I use EnergyTrace on CCS 8.1.0.00011 to check the power consumption, and I found the below results:

The consumption in normal mode (device is advertising) is 6.972mJ in 10 seconds

The consumption in the shutdown mode (after calling the Power_shutdown() function) is 9.146mJ in the same duration!

which means the idle state in the DMM example consumes less power than the shutdown mode after calling the function! I tried to test manually with a multimeter (instead of EnergyTrace), and I found the same results.

1- What could cause this issue? 

2- Does "Power_shutdown()" work normally with DMM examples? or there is some special handling needed for it?
