- Zero Power Wireless Sensors Paper
- Wireless sensors are becoming increasingly integrated and miniaturized. One obstacle facing sensor designers is the lack of size and profile improvement in batteries and other energy storage devices that maintain sufficient capacity to deliver the necessary power and energy. This White Paper describes how new thin film battery technologies solve this problem. Also learn how to create permanent power Energy Harvesting devices using solar and...

- Building Battery Arrays with Lithium-Ion Cells
- Applications with high voltage and capacity requirements are adopting Lithium-ion technology. High voltages require many cells in series, while high rate capability or capacity is achieved with many strings in parallel. Small battery packs, with less than 12 cells, can be assembled without balancing between the cells. However, issues associated with cell imbalance can be exaggerated in higher voltage battery arrays. Capacity fade is...

- Thin-Film Rechargeable Lithium, Lithium-Ion, and Li-free Batteries
- Solid state rechargeable lithium and lithium-ion batteries which are less than 15 µm (micrometers) thick have been developed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. These batteries have high energy and power densities, can be cycled thousands of times, and they can be fabricated in arbitrary shapes and to any required size to meet the requirements of a specific application. This site is intended to provide an overview of the properties of the...

- TI introduces single-chip battery fuel gauge with protection
- Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) today introduced the industry's smallest, full-featured battery fuel gauge integrated circuit for portable consumer, commercial and industrial applications. The bq3060 turns a battery into a 'smart battery' that measures and maintains an accurate record of available capacity, voltage, current, temperature and other critical parameters for lithium-based batteries. The single chip also provides robust...

- Online Prediction of Battery Lifetime for Embedded and Mobile Devices
- This paper presents a novel, history-based, statistical tech- nique for online battery lifetime prediction. The approach rst takes a one-time, full cycle, voltage measurement of a constant load, and uses it to transform the partial voltage curve of the current workload into a form with robust predictability. Based on the transformed history curve, we apply a statistical method to make a lifetime prediction. We investigate the...
