You know, when deploying electrical devices in remote areas,
charging can be quite the issue. I mean, you don't always find someone that can do it on a regular basis and let's be serious, you don't want to pay them a hefty fee just for that. This is where devices such as the new INFINERGY from Infinite Power Solutions come in. A family of micro power modules that promise to allow the deployment of maintenance-free perpetually powered wireless sensors or other such devices.
According to Tim Bradow, IPS' vice president of technical marketing and business development, Infinite Power Solutions, Inc., “INFINERGY Micro Power Modules represent the most efficient and powerful integrated power management and solid-state energy storage solution to enable perpetually-powered systems using all forms of ambient energy harvesting.”
The INFINERGY MPM manages to store
energy from low-power, intermittent energy harvesting devices thanks to its extremely efficient Passive Power management Unit (PPMU) that consumes less than 3nA when charging. There is also an integrated Low Drop Out voltage regulator meant to be compatible with most micro-electronic applications such as a micro-processor and or radio integrated circuits that are commonly found in wireless sensors.
Ending the article is the same Tim Bradow, IPS' vice president of technical marketing and business development, Infinite Power Solutions, Inc., “They greatly simplify the design effort to incorporate energy harvesting, requiring only a 2 wire interface, and supports both AC and DC inputs simultaneously. Their miniature size, negligible leakage current, and decades of service life make INFINERGY MPMs the ideal choice for off-grid, self-powered applications. INFINERGY MPMs change the paradigm for what is possible in designing electronic devices, enabling the development of 'green electronics' that rely only on power from the environment.”
