Mouser Stocks Cypress' S6AE101A Energy Harvesting PMIC
Low-Power Device Enables Tiny Solar-Powered Wireless Sensors
July 12, 2016 - Mouser Electronics, Inc. is now stocking the S6AE101A Energy Harvesting Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) device from Cypress Semiconductor. The S6AE101A PMIC device is a low-power, single-chip energy harvesting PMIC that can be used with solar cells as small as 1cm2 to enable tiny, solar-powered wireless sensors for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The new PMIC device is fully integrated, making it ideal for battery-less Wireless Sensor Nodes (WSNs) that monitor physical and environmental conditions for smart homes, commercial buildings, factories, infrastructure, and agriculture.
The Cypress S6AE101A Energy Harvesting PMIC device, available from Mouser Electronics, addresses size and power limitations of WSNs by providing startup power of 1.2µW — 4 times lower than similar devices — and consumption current as low as 250nA, maximizing the power available for the sensing, processing and communications functions of a target application. The S6AE101A PMIC device enables efficient harvesting from sunlight, vibrations and thermal variations, and offers power-switching circuits that monitor input power from solar cells and primary batteries, making it a reliable, flexible option to fully power or extend the battery life in IoT applications.
Mouser is also stocking the Cypress Solar-Powered IoT Device Kit, a complete, battery-free Energy Harvesting solution that pairs the S6AE101A PMIC with the CYBLE-022001-00 EZ-BLE™ Programmable Radio-on-Chip (PRoC™) module for Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) connectivity, along with supporting software. The fully-certified, small-form-factor EZ-BLE PRoC module works with the PMIC device to contribute to the low power and ease-of-use of an energy harvesting system solution. The Solar Powered IoT Device Kit provides everything needed to develop a light-powered sensor node that transmits sensor data using BLE.
