We offer unprecedented customer value for the Internet of Things.
IoT Power Analysis
Better understand how your IoT project consumes power and shortens battery life, starting with a baseline power analysis test mission. Understand nominal power usage, startup energy requirements, and power used by required peripherals. Limit late-stage design changes to your project by iteratively testing power usage as you update your platform's software and hardware configurations.
Understanding Battery Life Characteristics with Electronic Loads
To further understand how your IoT device drains power and shortens battery life, you need to know how the device draws power during its nominal power consumption, startup cycles, and peripheral power consumption. With this information, you can use electronic loads to simulate similar current consumption scenarios over longer periods of time. In this way, we can test how batteries perform in real-world use cases as part of an IoT product. Ultimately, this provides more reliable data on battery requirements to ensure your IoT product meets customer expectations between charging or replacing batteries.
Wireless Sensor Characterization Validation
Characterization of the simplest detectors and communication protocols needs to be verified before sending IoT devices to market. Characterize the error budget for verifying timing, radio power, and modulation settings in a real-world environment before critical baseband data errors impact performance. Analyze RF signals using the real-time bandwidth of a spectrum analyzer.
The trade-off between antenna resonance range, responsiveness, and battery life is at the heart of many IoT development projects. Understand the impact of these decisions by analyzing how the way antennas are used affects the relationship between radio power and range. Characterizing the antenna set used for VSWR for experiments using a 2.4 GHz Bluetooth low-power signal. How to choose the best antenna for IoT applications? We consider frequency response, VSWR and range as key characteristics that help us understand the suitability of antennas and their impact on the total power consumption of a device.
