NGK INSULATORS, LTD. (hereinafter “NGK”) has developed an evaluation system that visualizes the conditions of Li-ion rechargeable “EnerCera®” batteries, including remaining battery capacity, together with ON Semiconductor Corporation (Headquarters: Arizona, U.S., hereinafter...

CAP-XX, a manufacturer of ultra-thin prismatic, cylindrical, and Lithium-Ion supercapacitors, has launched its DMV750 ultra-thin 2.2mm prismatic 3V supercapacitor. The ultra-thin 3V prismatic supercap can efficiently store and release the energy needed to drive peak-power functions...

By transforming MXene-enhanced textiles into supercapacitors, a team of researchers from Drexel University and Accenture Labs have developed a flexible "patch" that could help power future wearables. Dr.Yury Gogotsi, a professor in the College of Engineering at Drexel University,...

Torex Semiconductor Ltd. has launched a high-performance, 1.4A inductor built-in step-up “micro DC/DC” Converter— XCL104/XCL105 series. The XCL104/XCL105 series is a synchronous step-up “micro DC/DC” converter with a built-in 1.4A driver and a built-in coil that is...

Trameto, a manufacturer of power management semiconductors for energy harvesting (EH PMICs) announces a demonstration platform that enables engineers to quickly evaluate how micro-energy harvesting can reduce or eliminate the use of batteries in IoT devices such as sensors and the...

A rechargeable battery’s load should be disconnected at the point of complete discharge, to avoid a further (deep) discharge that can shorten its life or destroy it. Because a battery’s terminal voltage recovers when you disconnect the load, you can’t simply disconnect the load...

Low energy consumption is one of the key catalysts for scalable product launches. If your product is power-hungry, customers will certainly give you negative feedback. Consequently, every developer strives to make their products have extended battery lives, and they are increasingly...

MATRIX Industries  PRMT11-18305-30 Prometheus Energy Harvesting Module converts thermal energy between small temperature gradients into useful electrical output, enabling users to power a device or recharge a battery or supercapacitor. The PRMT11-18305-30 integrates a Gemini...
