MicroPower Step-up Low-Voltage Booster Module Enables Practical Energy Capture from Low-Power Generators
New booster module bridges the gap in energy harvesting technologiesSUNNYVALE, Calif. – November 1, 2011 - Advanced Linear Devices Inc. (ALD), an innovation leader in cutting-edge analog semiconductor design, announces the release of a new family of MicroPower Step-up Low-Voltage Booster Modules. Designated the ALD EH4200 Series, these printed circuit board modules are designed to step-up or boost the output voltage of certain popular energy generators, which by themselves are unable to initiate the electronic capture process for efficiently harvesting ambient or waste energy.
