The nPM1300 power management IC (PMIC) from Nordic Semiconductor is now available at Rutronik. The IC integrates essential functions required for embedded Bluetooth Low Energy designs with hard reset functions for one or two buttons, accurate battery indication, a system level watchdog, power failure warning, and recovery from a failed startup in a single device. The level of integration and compact package reduces the number of components required and simplifies system design, said Rutronik.
