Beating battery drain: Power-conserving chip may increase smartphone battery life

Electronics News Updates / By Ibrar Ayyub

Stream video on your smartphone, or use its GPS for an hour or two, and you’ll probably see the battery drain significantly. As data rates climb and smartphones adopt more power-hungry features, battery life has become a concern. Now a technology developed by MIT spinout Eta Devices could help a phone’s battery last perhaps twice

Bring “dead” batteries back to life with a toroid and the Joule Thief circuit.

Electronics News Updates / By Ibrar Ayyub

The Joule Thief (Wikipedia) is a well-known “instant gratification” hobby circuit that uses just a handful of components to pull off a pretty impressive parlor trick — using a single 1.5V battery, the Joule Thief can light a high-voltage blue or white LED that normally requires 3.5V or greater to turn on. Even more impressive,
