Low power

nRF5340 Product Specification

To ensure lowest possible power consumption when the peripheral is not needed, stop and disable UARTE.

The STOPTX and STOPRX tasks may not be always needed (the peripheral might already be stopped), but if STOPTX and/or STOPRX is sent, software shall wait until the TXSTOPPED and/or RXTO event is received in response, before disabling the peripheral through the ENABLE register.
