Nordic Semiconductor's PMIC Nominated for Electronics Industry Awards
Nordic Semiconductor's nPM1300 PMIC Shortlisted for Prestigious Electronics Industry Award
BonChip Electronics, a valued distributor of Nordic Semiconductor's innovative power management solutions, is proud to announce that the nPM1300 PMIC has been shortlisted for an Electronics Industry Award in the "Power Product of the Year" category. This recognition highlights the nPM1300's groundbreaking approach to power management for low-power embedded designs.
A Pioneering Approach to Power Management
The nPM1300 stands out for its ability to integrate essential functionalities into a single, compact package:
- Highly Accurate Fuel Gauging: Delivers exceptional accuracy through an algorithm-based fuel gauge solution, surpassing traditional voltage-based methods. This innovative approach allows for highly reliable battery level monitoring.
- Efficient Battery Charging: Provides efficient battery charging capabilities, optimizing battery life for extended run times in portable devices.
- Advanced System Management: Offers a comprehensive suite of system management features, streamlining system design and operation.
- Dual Buck Regulators: Includes two highly efficient buck regulators for precise power regulation, ensuring optimal system performance.
Unmatched Efficiency and Functionality
The nPM1300 redefines the capabilities of a PMIC:
- Reduced Bill of Materials (BOM) Cost: By integrating essential functionalities, the nPM1300 eliminates the need for multiple discrete components, leading to lower BOM costs and a simplified system design.
- Lower Power Consumption: The algorithm-based fuel gauge offers a significant advantage over traditional coulomb counter solutions by not requiring constant power during system sleep, resulting in lower overall power consumption.
- Unprecedented Value Proposition: Nordic Semiconductor is the first company to integrate an algorithm-based fuel gauge solution into a PMIC, providing designers with exceptional accuracy and low power consumption at no additional cost.
Ideal for Nordic SoCs and SiPs
The nPM1300 seamlessly integrates with various Nordic solutions:
- Perfect Match for nRF Series SoCs: The nPM1300 is ideally suited for power management requirements in devices utilizing Nordic's nRF52, nRF53, nRF54H20, and nRF54L15 wireless multiprotocol SoCs.
- Optimized for nRF91 Series SiPs: The nPM1300 effectively complements nRF91 Series low-power cellular IoT SiPs, providing battery charging and fuel gauging functionalities. In these applications, the unregulated output of the nPM1300 powers the internal buck regulators within the nRF91 SiP.
Celebrating Innovation in Electronics
The Electronics Industry Awards, hosted by Components in Engineering, recognizes excellence and ingenuity within the electronics sector.
