stm32g030 stanby mode current problem

Hello everyone,

I have a problem with the STM32G030.

My microcontroller is drawing 1.5 mA of current in standby mode. I really can't figure out why. When I put it into stop mode, it draws 25 uA, which is fine, but I can't understand why it's drawing so much more in standby mode. Can you help me?

    Hello @Garslanbay

    I don't think you're entering standby mode, can you share your code?

    When I loaded the same code onto my STM32F072 Discovery board, I measured a current of 2 uA.This is enough for me.i will upload code later.i dont have it now.the code is in my computer.

    Are there any units I need to deactivate before entering Standby mode?

    Hello again @Garslanbay

    I'm suspecting a current draw from the pins connected to external components, what do you mean by "I am unable to set these pins as pull-up or pull-down."?
