Rapid Energy Harvester Prototyping
The XLP 16-bit Energy Harvesting Development Kit is a true development platform for realizing energy harvesting applications. It is based on Microchip’s PICR MCUs with nanoWatt XLP Technology and Cymbet’s EVAL-08 Solar Energy Harvester.
The development board portion of the kit features onboard temperature sensors, data EEPROM, potentiometer, watch crystal, LEDs and expansion connector for PICtail modules. Supported PICtail module options include: RF, SD/MMC Cards and more.
Solar Energy Harvester
The power for the kit is supplied by Cymbet’s EVAL-08 Solar Energy Harvester. The harvester features a high-effi ciency solar panel suitable for use with indoor or outdoor light.
The harvester captures, manages and stores energy in two Cymbet EnerChip thin-film rechargeable energy storage devices. The EnerChips supply energy to the XLP development board when light is not available.
Kit Features
■ Solar Energy Harvester with EnerChip storage devices providing backup power
