How do our Life Booster ICs extend coin cell battery life and available power of the batteries while reducing waste?
Tom from #teamnexperia recently joined Amelia from EE Journal for an episode of Chalk Talk to discuss our revolutionary new types of battery life boosting ICs designed to extend the life of a typical non-rechargeable lithium coin cell battery by up to 10x compared to competing solutions. This unrivaled extension in working life will significantly reduce the amount of battery waste in low-power Internet of Things (IoT) and other portable applications while making coin cells a viable power source for applications that could previously only operate from AA- or AAA- batteries.

As Internet-of-Things (IoT) technology reduces form factor and power consumption, many new battery-powered applications have become possible. For example, the wireless readings from remotely located ‘smart-agriculture’ soil moisture sensors are helping farmers to increase yields and make their farms more environmentally friendly. In sprawling storage facilities, wireless sensors send periodic temperature measurements, helping warehouse operators maintain operating conditions suitable for the types of goods stored there. While these innovations are valuable, the very feature enabling their operation is also their biggest shortcoming – battery power. Without it, locating sensors at geographically remote locations would be impossible because no alternative fixed power source is typically available, and installing one would be prohibitively expensive.
