90 watts output power and provides two independent channels, each able to supply and control up to 16 LEDs, said the company. The high-efficiency modular platform enables the development of battery-less LED lighting applications when used with the Energy Harvesting Bluetooth Low Energy switch. A PoE module for high-power, wired connectivity, based on the IEEE 802.3bt-compliant NCP1096 interface controller, extends the platform to provide access to 90 watts of power that can be delivered through an Ethernet cable, said the company. “Lighting is one of the most significant consumers of energy across the globe,” said Wiren Perera, head-IoT strategy at ON. By combining flexibility, wireless control, and energy efficiency, the platform allows manufacturers to “drastically reduce their energy consumption while providing greater user convenience."
