The current has been tested and is already a lot less and if the sleep mode is used, possibly even lower?
RP2040: 420MHz 82mA, 378MHz 76mA, 252MHz 50mA, 133MHz 28mA, 48MHz 13mA.
RP2350: 420MHz invalid, 378MHz 57mA, 252MHz 37mA, 150MHz 20mA, 48MHz 9mA. (Current only goes from high to low frequency to a lower current value after reset)


I'm having trouble understanding this.   If the clock rate is dropped, shouldn't the current usage drop at the same time?   Can somebody explain this to me?

As the speed is stepped up from a low speed to a higher speed, the current requirement increases with each step, right?
