Combining an ultra-low power RTC with a rechargeable solid state battery and power management IC, the EnerChip RTC product family has been unveiled by Cymbet. Available in a single 5 x 5mm plastic package, the company claims that the device is the world’s smallest RTC with integrated power holdover.

Cymbet used the PCIM Europe show to reveal the successful results of in vivo biocompatibility feasibility studies that were conducted to evaluate the biological safety of the EnerChi Rechargeable Solid State Battery. EnerChip bare die batteries were crushed and combined into a saline solution which was introduced into an in vivo test setting. No ill effects were recorded nor were any test article related lesions observed in this study.

If electronics manufacturers have a motto, it's probably this: Innovate or Die. For years, the industry's rapid rate of innovation and consumers' insatiable demand of for greater capability and convenience have driven each other in a relentless upward spiral.

Cymbet EnerChip rechargeable solid state batteries are the ideal solution for energy storage for microelectronic systems. Applications include backing up Real Time Clocks, Microcontrollers and SRAM devices. EnerChips are ideal for energy harvesting powered devices such as wireless sensors, medical devices, data loggers and remote location tracking equipment

Avnet Abacus will be showcasing a variety of innovative energy harvesting technologies at the inaugural Elektronik Energy Harvesting Congress, which is to be held in Munich, Germany, on 4th and 5th July, 2012.

Cymbet Corporation today announced the availability of the EnerChip CC CBC3105 smart solid state battery. The CBC3105 combines the award winning EnerChip battery with integrated input power conversion, battery management and regulated output capabilities. The Cymbet EnerChip CC is a smart rechargeable solid state battery Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) in a chip that provides power backup to microelectronic devices when main power fails.

Cymbet EnerChip solid state batteries are highly rechargeable energy storage devices packaged in low profile, surface mount, solder reflowable packages. Their low self-discharge, high charge-discharge cycle life, and ability to accept very low input charging current combine to make them ideally suited as energy storage devices in low power applications.
