Many companies need to purchase IP when designing ASIC chips. So how should we choose among the numerous IP vendors? Typically, we need to evaluate the IP selection based on the following factors: Before selecting IP, it is essential to confirm the production process of the ASIC chip, as the performance, power consumption, and area … Read more
Everything begins with connectivity. The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly integrating into our daily lives and various industries, with increasingly intelligent and convenient interactions between people and objects, as well as between objects themselves. Wireless communication has become an invisible bridge in IoT connectivity, with mainstream communication technologies such as Bluetooth, WiFi, and ZigBee … Read more

Although my experience in low power design is not extensive, I have worked on projects with high demands for low power consumption, so I have a general understanding of the common practices and main techniques in low power design. Additionally, due to various … Read more
1 Introduction The previous article reviewed the hierarchical methods of low power design【Technical Review】, and this article further discusses some of the key points. This is particularly beneficial for those who are new to low power design, as it may provoke more thoughts. 2 Why Low Power Design is Necessary The previous article mentioned several … Read more
Before learning about low power consumption in PIC microcontrollers, let’s briefly go over some basic knowledge and concepts related to low power consumption. Power (Watts) = U (Volts) * I (Amperes) Energy (Joules) = U (Volts) * I (Amperes) * t (Seconds) Charge (Coulombs) = I (Amperes) * t (Seconds) Power consumption can be divided … Read more
1. Concept Composition of Power Consumption: Three main sources of power consumption: surge, static power, and dynamic power; Surge Current: Refers to the maximum instantaneous input current generated when the device is powered on, known as the inrush current; The surge current is device-dependent; Surge power is not our primary concern, so it is only … Read more
Low Power Design 5.1 Power Consumption Sources Surge、Static Power Consumption and Dynamic Power Consumption are the three main sources of power consumption. • Surge current refers to the maximum instantaneous input current generated when the device is powered on, and is also known as startup current in applications. • Standby current refers to the current … Read more
