Researchers at the University of Warwick in the UK have developed sensors which measure the internal temperature and electrode potential of Lithium batteries. The technology is being developed by the Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) as a part of a batteryâs normal operation. More intense testings have been done on standard commercially available automotive battery cells. […]
With ultra-low quiescent current of 250 nA, the MCP1811 enables battery life which is four-times longer than conventional ultra-low Iq LDO regulators. Compact packages down to 1 x 1 mm also help the MCP1811 to minimise board space. The MCP1811/12 devices are 150 mA (MCP1811) and 300 mA (MCP1812) low dropout (LDO) linear regulators that provide high-current and low-output
