During the high power PA operation, the DC-DC supplies the analog and digital core of the devices, whereas the PA itself

-the largest power consumption contributor- is supplied directly from VBAT. Therefore, there is no significant current

consumption difference between the DC-DC or the LDO modes during the high power PA operation.
