Maxell to Introduce Power Modules and Energy Gathering-Friendly Assessment Kits Equipped with Solid-State Batteries "PSB401010H" in September
In a significant development, Maxell Ltd. and the ROHM group have co-developed an Energy Harvesting-Compatible Evaluation Kit, set to hit the market in September. This innovative kit utilises ROHM Co., Ltd.'s charging control IC for energy harvesting and a boost DC-DC converter IC equipped with ultra-low power consumption technology 'Nano EnergyTM'.
The Evaluation Kit is equipped with a boost DC-DC converter IC featuring ultra-low power consumption technology 'Nano EnergyTM'. This technology, a trademark of ROHM Co., Ltd., is renowned for its energy efficiency. The charging control IC for energy harvesting, also from ROHM Co., Ltd., plays a crucial role in the kit's functionality.
Maxell, Ltd. has also developed the 'All-Solid-State Battery Power Module', which will come pre-integrated with charging and boosting circuits, eliminating the need for dedicated circuit design. This module, trademarked as the all-solid-state battery 'PSB401010H', boasts a wide discharge temperature range, high reliability, large capacity, and output, and high safety. It is capable of discharging at temperatures of up to 125°C.
Maxell is focusing on the development of all-solid-state batteries and modules, with a focus on four key features: wide discharge temperature range, high reliability, high capacity, high output, and high safety. The company advises consultation for considering these products for main power source applications.
The launch of the Power Modules and Energy Harvesting-Compatible Evaluation Kits is a result of Maxell's co-development with the ROHM group in July 2023. The company that develops these products and uses the trademark 'Nano EnergyTM' for ultra-low energy consumption technology is likely NANO Nuclear Energy Inc., based on the trademark 'Nano EnergyTM' association and advanced energy technology focus. However, no direct explicit reference was found in the search results linking the trademark exactly to this product.
Maxell believes these products will streamline the evaluation process and ultimately lead to the expansion of applications for all-solid-state batteries. The products are set to revolutionise the energy harvesting and battery industries, offering a more efficient, reliable, and safer solution for various applications.
