MIKROE-2814, Solar Energy CLICK Board based on the BQ25570 Solar Energy Harvester

Description

• MIKROE-2814, Solar Energy CLICK Board has solar energy harvesters - it encompasses both of these devices in a single package. The CLICK Board uses BQ25570 - a Nano-power high-efficiency boost charger and buck converter device, designed to work with very low power energy harvesting elements, such as the photovoltaic and thermoelectric generators. The Solar energy click recharges the connected LiPo battery or the onboard 220mF super capacitor, using the photovoltaic element. This click can also power up low power consumption devices by using the stored energy, providing a way for continuous power operation of low power devices. These features make the Solar energy click an ideal solution for powering wireless sensor networks, environment monitoring devices, portable and wearable health monitoring devices and similar low power self-sustained devices
