對可穿戴設(shè)備和物聯(lián)網(wǎng)的隱形電池

　　可穿戴設(shè)備市場和物聯(lián)網(wǎng)（物聯(lián)網(wǎng)）運(yùn)動都預(yù)計將在未來十年迅速擴(kuò)大。這些應(yīng)用部門對電子元件的主要技術(shù)要求是超低功耗，低成本，無線連接，在大多數(shù)情況下，超小尺寸。

　　能量采集已經(jīng)被確定為一個重要的技術(shù)，可穿戴設(shè)備和無線傳感器節(jié)點(diǎn)供電。電池儲能，同時，被認(rèn)為是必不可少的大多數(shù)應(yīng)用。然而，今天的傳統(tǒng)形式的因素，包括硬幣細(xì)胞，被視為一個嚴(yán)重的限制。瘦、柔韌和能力是關(guān)鍵因素。因此，薄膜/固態(tài)和印刷電池提供了最大的潛力。

　　This article will outline the challenges of providing continuous power for wearable devices with respect to battery technology， battery lifetime and rechargeability. It will then highlight the advantages of the latest generation of solid-state batteries， particularly their small size， design flexibility， and their ability to be recharged wirelessly via harvested ambient energy.

　　Reference will be made to the Cymbet Corporation range of EnerChip solid-state batteries with integrated real-time clock and power management features and their respective evaluation kits.
