Leverage Smart Test Techniques to Extend IoT Battery Life (.PDF Download)

March 9, 2017

Reducing power consumption and optimizing power-management functions are primary concerns for Internet of Things (IoT) developers, but the challenges can be quite varied. In the case of wearables, a design goal might be to extend battery life from a few days to weeks. For sensor nodes that could be in difficult-to-access locations, the goal might be to achieve battery life that can be measured in decades...
