NICHICON Announces Partnership with Matrix Utilizing the Prometheus Self-Powered Technology in association with SLB Battery
(SHAUMBURG, IL – June 22nd, 2023)
Nichicon Corporation and Matrix Industries are excited to announce a new partnership. Nichicon will help promote Matrix’s self-powered intelligence everywhere sensors by utilizing Matrix’s Prometheus series thermoelectric energy harvesting modules in association with our own SLB Series of Lithium Titanate Oxide (LTO) Batteries.
With the help of Matrix’s Prometheus self-powered modules, the battery can be kept in a charged state using ubiquitous harvested energy, offering a more convenient and efficient solution for powering and charging devices.
“We have found Nichicon’s innovative SLB batteries to be the best battery solution for our autonomous sensor solutions, which require extreme cycle life, high power density, and the ability to be trickle charged from harvested energy. This combination of properties cannot be found in any other battery chemistry on the market.” – Douglas Tham, CTO.
“Thermoelectric Power Generation has the advantage of being able to generate power in the dark and 24 hours a day. The era of disposable batteries is over, and maintenance-free and environmentally friendly IoT technology is expected to expand greatly in the future,” states Craig Anderson, President of Nichicon America.
