POWER SECTION:
• Module: Battery
• Battery used: Lithium ion
• Description: These batteries are rechargeable and lightweight, making them ideal to be used in
wearables. Power numbers are to be calculated based on the specifications of the components
decided to be used before choosing the capacity.
• Functional Purpose: Used to supply the wearable device when not in power. With this existing
architecture, can supply the entire device for about 7 Days.
• Module: PMIC
• Part Number: MAX14676D
• Description: Battery-charge-management solutions ideal for low-power wearable applications. These
devices include a linear battery-charger with a Smart Power Selector, Model Gauge fuel gauge, and
several power-optimized peripherals. They feature an ultra-low-power buck regulator with a
quiescent current of 900nA (typical) and produces the system voltage of 1V8.
• Functional Purpose: Used as a linear battery charger, fuel gauge and provides output voltage for the
entire system.
BLE SECTION:
• Module: BLE
• Part Number: nRF51822
• Description: Nordic’s nRF51822 SoC provides Bluetooth LE connectivity between the wearable and a
Bluetooth 4.0 (and later) iOS or Android smartphone to transfer physiological data to the
smartphone.
• Functional Purpose: Gives the ability to update data to phone app and update Firmware.
