Energy Harvesting Power Management Unit
Delivers Industry-Leading Efficiency in Energy
Scarce IoT Applications
Analog Devices, Inc. announced a power management unit
(PMU) designed to enable faster and more efficient energy
harvesting in IoT applications where energy is scarce. Due
to its unique circuit design, the ADP509x is among the most
efficient energy harvesting PMUs on the market, converting
harvested power down to the 16 μW to 100mW range with
only sub-μW operation losses. The ADP509x also delivers
the fastest cold-startup time available today. Devices relying
on energy harvesting in low energy conditions often have
to slowly accumulate enough energy to turn on, resulting in
long delays before the device can start sensing, processing,
and transmitting. This can result in missed data collection,
slow operation, and poor user experience. The ADP509x
PMU solves these problems with an innovative multiple-
power-path design, which enables faster startups and
smoother operation.
IZT Unveils Next Generation of its High
Performance Receivers
IZTGmbHexpands itspowerfulRFreceiver family introducing
the IZT R5000. The next generation of high performance
receivers combines up to 100 MHz instantaneous bandwidth
with the proven excellent RF performance of the legacy IZT
receivers. The R5000 covers the frequency range between
9 kHz and 18 GHz.
Received signals will be available as high resolution
spectrum data in combination with up to four configurable
wideband I/Q data channels with user configurable sample
rates and independent center frequencies.
The wideband channels provide I/Q data between 5 MHz
and 100 MHz bandwidth. Additional 32 channels with up
to 4 MHz bandwidth each can be used for narrowband
monitoring, demodulation or analysis functionality in
software. A dual 10-Gbit optical interface ensures adequate
throughput in all operational scenarios.
The IZT R5000 gives system integrators direct access to the
control and data interfaces, where the received RF signals
will be available both in IQ and PSD format. When combined
with the IZT Signal Suite Software, the new RF receiver also
supports IZT’s patented technique for frequency selective
and dynamic recording of active portions of the spectrum.
This feature results in a substantial reduction of required
storage space.
“This new family of receivers uses latest digital signal
processing technologies on a compact and robust hardware
platform. This puts IZT in a leading position to address
demanding applications, for example airborne direction
finders or unattended outdoor nodes for spectrummonitoring
or Time-Difference-Of-Arrival location finding” stated Rainer
Perthold, CEO of IZT.
The IZTR5000 can be configured for TDOA(Time-Difference-
Of-Arrival) and DF (Direction Finding) applications. Like the
IZT R3000, the IZT R5000 series will be available in various
configurations and mechanical form factors ranging from
rack-based, single channel indoor applications to multi-
channel direction finding receivers for outdoor or airborne
applications.
