This reference design shows multiple architectures for extending primary battery life using a secondary battery or supercapacitor with energy harvested from a current transformer (CT) or solar cells. Optimal power management is done using efficient LED drivers to drive series or parallel strings of LEDs to control intensity for uniform 360° visibility.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
