cannot get low power with Adafruit Trinket I want to get as low power use during sleep as possible with an Adafruit Trinket. Based on results presented on various places in the internet (blogs etc), I expect to be able to go down to 50 - 100 micro amps on the ATTiny85 of the Trinket. I am aware of the fact that using a board such as Trinket may add a bit of consumption, and I physically removed the power LED and the power regulator. I am feeding 5V directly on the 5V pin.

I am using the simplest sketch I can think about for low power, with nothing connected to any pin:

#include &lt;avr/sleep.h&gt;          // library for sleep

#define adc_disable() (ADCSRA &amp;= ~(1&lt;&lt;ADEN)) // disable ADC (before power-off)

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  delay(10000);

  // power_all_disable();
  set_sleep_mode(SLEEP_MODE_PWR_DOWN);
  adc_disable();
  sleep_enable();
  sleep_mode();

}

void loop() {

}


But I cannot get less than around 1.3 milli amps consumption during sleep. Do you know what may be the cause of using ~1mA instead of ~100 microA? Any idea how I can decrease this further?

Edit 1: it should be even much less than ~50 - 100 micro Amps: ATtiny85: Power consumption vs clock speed ; even though this the libraries are maybe primary intended for the ATMega328P, it looks like it should work also with ATTiny85 as well: http://www.technoblogy.com/show?KX0

Edit 2: I had an ATMega328P-based Adafruit Metro Mini lying around. I took away the ON LED, and then using exactly this sketch, feeding power directly on the 5V pin of the Metro Mini, leads to a power consumption of around 150 micro Amps during sleep, which is more like what I expect. Strange it is 10 times more with the ATtiny while it should have been less (?). Am I missing something or is it maybe just broken library on ATtiny? This is a bit ironic, as I went for the lesser ATtiny85 based board for saving current compared with the ATMega328P...
Please have a look at the schematics:

The USB connector uses a resistor (1500 Ohms) against the 5V net and a 3.6 Volt Z-Diode on it's (D-)-Pin. In addition to the current that is drawn by the microcontroller, this part of the circuit draws some extra current. (5[V] - 3.6[V])/1500[ohm] = 0.0009333... ~= 0.001 [A].
Even though I'm not completely sure without making some tests, that seams plausible to me.
EDIT
(Answer to the OPs comment below.)
The schematics uses a normal diode symbol but has a 3.6 Volt label next to it. I assume that it should be a Zener diode with a reverse voltage drop of 3.6 Volts. If I'm right, the Diode is used to limit the 5 Volts to 3.6 Volts (for what reason ever). The Zener Diode effectively limits  the Voltage over it to 3.6 Volts. The rest of the voltage of 5 Volts must be dropped over the resistor. i.e. 5V - 3.6V = 1.4V. This voltage drop tells us  by Ohms Law that the current through the  resistor is:
I = U / R
I[A] = 1.4[V] / 1500[Ohm]  = (about) 1 mA.

This value is very reasonable for your observations and the current is drawn from the 5V connect, hence you can measure it, even if you would desolder the microcontroller.
