Showcasing partner and customer applications for sustainable power management, sensing, monitoring and edge IoT applications – Hall 4A / 4A-301
Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, 5th March, 2025 – e-peas has announced it will attend Embedded World and showcase its advanced technologies that enable Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and facility managers to develop battery-free IoT systems for smart building and smart home applications.
Visitors to the e-peas booth (Hall 4A / Booth Number 4A-301) will see demonstrations and actual products of presence detectors, carbon dioxide sensors, remote controls, and energy sensors based on the company’s efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective single- and dual-source power management ICs for ambient energy.
Due to the number of batteries discarded each year from IoT devices – the EU estimates 78 million per day – governments are seeking to reduce the use of disposable batteries. The EU’s EnABLES programme calls for energy harvesting where possible, with a need for “batteries to live longer than the IoT devices they power”. e-peas’ energy harvesting semiconductors eliminate the need for disposable batteries. They have been deployed across a range of smart home and smart building (and beyond) applications to reduce maintenance costs and eliminate disposable batteries.
The company’s Ambient Energy Manager (AEM) range of PMICs, which are backed by an ecosystem of leading partners and tools, is enabling sustainable power management in a wide variety of sensing, monitoring, and edge IoT applications.
“Developers, consumers, and governments are realizing the cost and/or the environmental impact of replacing batteries and battery-powered devices, and there is an increasing pressure on OEMs to find alternatives to power these devices more sustainably,” says e-peas CEO, Geoffroy Gosset. “From remote controls to sensors and actuators, we are working with many industry leaders to help eliminate these and help OEMs stay ahead of legislation within the tight power and cost constraints forced upon these industries.”
e-peas’ ICs can further accelerate the evolution from batteries to energy harvesting by enabling the rapid development of ultra-efficient designs with the smallest bill of materials and the minimum form factor. The booth will also host a photovoltaic-based demonstration of e-peas’ AEM13920 dual-source energy harvesting IC as well as many partners’ contributions to Ambient IoT momentum.
Other demonstrations will include battery-free applications for detecting movement, open doors, and sensing carbon dioxide based on the AEM00920 and AEM10920 photovoltaic PMICs, which combine a high-efficiency boost and buck converters with a direct storage charger.
Various miniature EVKs spanning e-peas portfolio are also showcased, giving developers a clear idea of how energy harvesting implementation fits into their product redesign.
Additionally, solutions for HID (Human Interface Device) wireless keyboards, LoRaWAN, MIOTY end node sensors, BLE5.4 electronic shelf labeling, and TV remote controls will be on display. Finally, 802.15.4 protocol derivatives will also be represented through various system-on-chip vendors collaborations.
Embedded World takes place in Nuremberg from 11th – 13th March 2025.
