I have a wireless network application which requires a star topology with bidirectional communication with up to 16 slave devices. The master device must not use significantly higher average current than the slave devices. BLE appeared to have a low enough average current draw if the connection interval was set to the maximum value. However, since the TI stack only supports 3 connections, that would require the devices to make/break the connection for each communication session. Wouldn’t that significantly increase the average current?
