Problem
Many IoT devices rely on batteries, leading to issues with battery life, replacement costs, and environmental concerns related to battery disposal. This is especially problematic for devices deployed in remote or difficult-to-access locations.
Solution
e-peas develops and markets ultra-low-power semiconductor solutions that enable IoT devices to operate autonomously by harvesting energy from ambient sources. Their portfolio includes ambient energy managers (AEMs) and microcontrollers (MCUs) designed to maximize energy harvesting efficiency and minimize power consumption. These solutions allow for the creation of battery-free or battery-extended devices, reducing maintenance, waste, and environmental impact.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes designers of industrial IoT devices, smart home and building solutions, consumer electronics, and other applications where low power consumption and energy harvesting are critical.
