Boston, MA 06\/10\/2014 (wallstreetpr) \u2013 Spansion Inc. (NYSE:CODE)<\/b> introduced a new series of Power Management Integrated Circuits or PMICs, which eradicate the need of batteries and works on energy harvesting.<\/p>\n
The innovation by the global leader in embedded systems offer an opportunity for an eco friendly Internet of Things. The PMICs claim to eliminate the need of extending battery life or even batteries completely from a range of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The new ICs operate with the principle of energy harvesting and are designed for devices ranging from handheld devices to the nodes in wireless sensor networks.<\/p>\n
Energy Harvesting<\/b><\/p>\n
Energy harvesting refers to the process of acquiring and storing energy available from surrounding sources such as temperature variations, vibrations and light. This energy is converted into electricity which can eventually be used as a substitute for or as an additional supply to battery power. Hence Spansion Inc. (NYSE:CODE)\u2019 new IC series saves the expenses involved with battery maintenance as also the other difficulties involved with it. In addition, batteries are unreliable and dangerous for children. They also harm the environment. However, the new system utilizes inexhaustible natural sources of energy including solar and thermal vibrations, which offer an eco- friendly solution. The green sources of energy have the potential to fully power or, if needed, enhance battery life, when properly harvested.<\/p>\n
The PMIC Series<\/b><\/p>\n
Spansion Inc. (NYSE:CODE)\u2019s PMIC series includes the MB39C811 and the MB39C831. While the former is an ultra-low-power buck\u00b2 PMIC supporting dual input that allows harvesting vibration and solar energy efficiently, the second is an ultra-low-voltage boost IC which harvests solar and thermal energies.<\/p>\n
With this innovation, Spansion Inc. (NYSE:CODE) underscores its longstanding dedication to the environment. The company has achieved global recognition of a green partner by government, customers and other industry partners. The company\u2019s Analog Business Division\u2019s Senior Vice President, Tom Sparkman, believes that its customers are ready to welcome the next generation eco- friendly electronics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
