It's been a while since I posted last but I plan to start doing that regularly again. We are now offering the “Low Power Design” PDF e-book for free on our website. I'll continue to cover low power design here along with relevant industry news and some occasional CMicrotek news.
So, about the e-book. Most of the information on the web about low power design focuses on hardware design (and mostly the same basic information repeated over and over) yet the firmware will often determine whether a product meets its power targets or not. Our e-book offers tips and techniques for both low power hardware and firmware design. Much of the information contained within the e-book hasn’t been published and is based on over 20 years of experience in developing battery powered devices and efficient firmware for high performance products. The “Low Power Design” e-book provides a good introduction to the many issues encountered in designing low power devices for engineers new to low power design while including enough in-depth discussion that more experienced engineers can find it useful too.
