Murata and Nowi partner on powering IoT devices
Murata and Nowi are working together to enable and simplify the development of sustainable energy-autonomous IoT platforms for use in plug-and-forget applications.
The objective of this collaboration is to bring to market reference platforms and designs that use Murata’s small, low power consumption LoRa modules, powered by Nowi’s compact and efficient energy harvesting PMIC.
The 60 by 65mm modular platform is designed to increase development versatility for end-users, offering LoRa connectivity by embedding Murata’s 1SJ or ABZ module and sending the data from the external sensor attached to the onboard sensor socket.
Combined with Nowi’s small NH2 energy harvesting PMIC, the platform allows for simple and fast development of low-cost energy-autonomous LoRa connected products. The PMIC is designed to extract power efficiently from ambient energy sources to charge a wide variety of energy storage elements.
