The high UVLO threshold takes would continuously deplete the output capacitor until advantage of the fact that energy storage on a capacitor is PGOOD went low. proportional to the square of the capacitor voltage. After The output voltages available on the LTC3588-2 are par- the output voltage is brought into regulation any excess ticularly suited to Li-Ion and LiFePO4 batteries as well as energy is stored on the input capacitor and its voltage supercapacitors for applications where energy storage at increases. When a load exists at the output the buck can the output is desired. efficiently transfer energy stored at a high voltage to the
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Introduction
The LTC3588-2 harvests ambient vibrational energy readily. A wide range of piezoelectric elements are avail- through a piezoelectric element in its primary application. able and produce a variety of open-circuit voltages and Common piezoelectric elements are PZT (lead zirconate short-circuit currents. Typically the open-circuit voltage titanate) ceramics, PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) poly- and short-circuit currents increase with available vibra- mers, or other composites. Ceramic piezoelectric elements tional energy as shown in Figure 4. Piezoelectric elements exhibit a piezoelectric effect when the crystal structure can be placed in series or in parallel to achieve desired of the ceramic is compressed and internal dipole move- open-circuit voltages. ment produces a voltage. Polymer elements comprised The LTC3588-2 is well-suited to a piezoelectric energy of long-chain molecules produce a voltage when flexed harvesting application. The 20V input protective shunt as molecules repel each other. Ceramics are often used can accommodate a variety of piezoelectric elements. The under direct pressure while a polymer can be flexed more low quiescent current of the LTC3588-2 enables efficient energy accumulation from piezoelectric elements which can have short-circuit currents on the order of tens of microamps. Piezoelectric elements can be obtained from manufacturers listed in Table 2. INCREASING VIBRATION ENERGY TAGE
