Ambient Energy in Action: Transforming Environmental Energy into Usable Power

Описание: In this episode of the Würth Elektronik Watts Up Podcast, we examine the different types of ambient energy and the technical challenges of converting and storing them efficiently. We discuss practical methods for turning ambient energy into reliable power, strategies for managing irregular energy and voltage fluctuations, and the effects of energy loss due to leakage. We also cover low power converter ICs that handle energy from multiple harvesters and supply microprocessors with integrated RF modules for wireless, autonomous operation. Additionally, we address the important role of low power sensors within the energy harvesting ecosystem.
