Maximum Power Point Control Simplifies Energy Harvesting
Nov 8th 2010
There is an increasing market for low power electronic devices located in remote locations, away from the power grid. Ideally, the power for these devices should be generated on-site using renewable energy. Perhaps the most visible form of renewable energy is from the sun. Converting this solar energy into electrical energy ...
LTC3588-1 Piezo Energy Harvesting Power Supply - Video Product Brief
Jun 29th 2010
The LTC3588-1 integrates a low-loss full-wave bridge rectifier with a high efficiency buck converter to form a complete energy harvesting solution optimized for high output impedance energy sources such as piezoelectric transducers. An ultralow quiescent current undervoltage lockout (UVLO) mode allows charge to accumulate on ...
LTC3109 Auto-Polarity, Ultralow Voltage Step-Up Converter and Power Manager - Video Product Brief
Jun 29th 2010
The LTC3109 is a highly integrated step-up DC/DC converter ideal for harvesting surplus energy from extremely low input voltage sources such as TEGs (thermoelectric generators) and thermopiles. Its unique, proprietary autopolarity topology allows it to operate from input voltages as low as 30mV, regardless of polarity.
