Evaluation board for AEM10941
Description
The AEM10941 evaluation board is a printed circuit board
(PCB) featuring all the needed components to operate the
AEM10941 integrated circuit (IC). Please refer to the datasheet
for all the useful details about the AEM10941 (Document
DS AEM10941).
The AEM10941 evaluation board allows users to test the e-peas
IC and analyze its performances in a laboratory-like setting.
It allows easy connections to the energy harvester, the storage
element and the low-voltage and high-voltage loads. It also
provides all the configuration access to set the device in any
one of the modes described in the datasheet. The control and
status signals are available on standard pin headers, allowing
users to wire for any usage scenario and evaluate the relevant
performance.
The AEM10941 evaluation board is a plug and play, intuitive
and efficient tool for making the appropriate decisions (com-
ponent selection, operating modes) for the design of a highly
efficient solar energy powered subsystem in your target appli-
cation.
