LPUART consumes extra 3mA while STOP2 mode

I'm using STM32WB55. The reference example is BLE_p2pServer with custom modifications. The power consumption of STOP2 mode ( by enabling CFG_LPM_SUPPORTED ) is around 6mA (board level), and it will be around 9mA after LPUART is enabled with RCC_LPUART1CLKSOURCE_HSI. Is that reasonable?

If (3.85+5.25)*64 is the correct extra current consumption of LPUART in STOP mode?

    Hello @Charles_Li,

    The calculated extra current is in the range of 0.576mA, yes, which is significantly lower than the observed increase of 3mA. Is there any other active peripherals?
