Description

The AP4470L is an ultra-low consumption power management chip that integrates a step-up DC-DC converter and hysteresis comparators. The AP4470L requires only 0.20V input to start boosting without the need for an external transformer. The AP4470L has hysteresis operation switch that can control the power supply for target devices (sensors, wireless modules, LEDs) while protecting external storage (capacitors), and the target.
 
1μW DC input is enough to startup the AP4470L. Converted output is stored to external storage device and the AP4470L monitors the device. When the voltage of external storage reaches 2.7V, the AP4470L automatically starts supplying to the target device and stops supplying if the voltage drops down to 2.1V. Overvoltage protection function works at 2.95V.
2-types of power indicators offer reset function and trigger switch function. The trigger (Startup FLAG) is achieved by a signal that is output when DC-DC converter becomes active. The reset (Power Good) is a signal that indicates the AP4470L starts supplying, which means external storage’s voltage reaches 2.7V.
 
The AP4470L is ideally suited for several uW to several mW sources energy harvesting. This provides a self-powered wireless sensor node with simple hardware design.

Key Features

  • Energy harvesting
    A technology that extracts minute energy and converts it into electric power.
  • Suppressing current consumed by self
    The biggest feature is that it consumes the smallest current

Applications

  •                                 ■Energy Harvesting
    ・Wireless Sensor Node
    ・Wearable and Portable Device
    ■Example of Energy Harvester (several uW to several mW sources)
