DESCRIPTION
The V-harvester board is a photovoltaic (PV) harvesting backup demonstration circuit. It is a sophisticated stand-alone board
charged using TEMD5080X01 micro PV cells or with micro USB. The input power goes into an e-peas low power AEM10941
controller, where it is stepped up to the supercapacitor voltage of 4.2 V. Upon power demands at the interface or ENLV, ENHV
settings, the controller converts the supply voltage to the target voltages using low dropout regulators (LDO).

These target voltages are set to 1.8 V (low voltage) and 2.5 V (high voltage) on this board by a high ohmic resistor network. The
board is equipped with a 4 F / 4.2 V 196 HVC ENYCAP™ hybrid energy storage capacitor, and has options to jumper to other
storage capacitors on the backside (or a BATT_CN = battery connector).
Fig. 2 - Jumper AEM_BATT set to 196 HVC ENYCAP™ (by default populated as 4.2 V / 4 F)
If faster charging is needed, an external PV cell can be connected (and jumpered). If no light harvesting is available, jumper A
can be set to USB.
Fig. 3 - AEM SRC set to PV1-3, or AEM SRC set to USB
Upon connection of a 5 V micro USB cable, the red LED close to the USB port turns on and the “Status 2” green LED will flash
once every ~ 5 seconds.
LIFE WORKING SIGNAL
The green Status 2 LED indicator is available to view as a periodic life signal. This indicator is active - even if AEM SRC is
jumpered to sources other than USB - to visualize operation. However, as described in the last section, only if USB is connected.
This means the power to flash this indicator is drawn from USB only and will not consume power otherwise. Status 2 is the
MPPT signal by the controller and is always active, even in very dark conditions. If the indicator does not flash periodically, then
the PV cell boost circuit was shut down by a PV input voltage below 50 mV. To reactivate it, an initial trigger of at least 400 mV
PV voltage or a kick-start by a USB input source - including jumper USB to AEM ARC - is required.

MINIMAL JUMPER SETTINGS
1. Yellow jumpers “PRIM / NoPrim” for no primary cell
attached
2. Green jumper “-0.5 V” for PV setting, as described in the
next paragraph (pictured is one possibility)
3. AEM Batt setting to any of the sources (here, an upper
red jumper to the 196 HVC)
4. AEM SRC setting either to PV or USB (here, the lower red
jumper to PV1 - PV3)
5. CFG2 [CFG[2:0] left] set to zero to define the 1.8 V and
2.5 V default settings (custom voltage defined by
resistors) (black jumper)
The minimum for activating the low voltage 1.8 V output is
setting the ENLV jumper to 1 (blue jumper).
The minimum for activating the high voltage 2.5 V output is
setting the ENHV jumper to 1 (blue jumper).
The ENHV can be controlled from the SENS_CN interface
too.
PHOTOVOLTAIC HARVESTING ELEMENTS
The board is equipped by default with two PV cells, and the target input should be jumpered with the green jumper JP4 shown
above to bypass PV3.

The term “-0.5 V” refers to the possibility of subtracting 0.5 V in direct sunlight if operation with fewer PV cells than populated
is tested. The right jumper is required if two PV cells are populated.

This table shows the ideal values in column 3 and the used values in the last column to accomplish the following voltages:
• Minimum voltage for the storage capacitor = 2.8 V
• Enable voltage level for the HV LDO = 2.9 V (HV is generated by tge LDO from the storage capacitor voltage)
• Maximum voltage for the storage capacitor = 4.29 V
• High voltage output level = 2.5 V
The results are R1 to R6, which are in total 55 M attached to the Vboost regulator output.
The LV 1.8 V output is the default (see next table).

Custom mode - programmable through R1 to R6
1.8 V
The custom mode Voch means V = 4.29 V as a cut-off charge voltage, as defined in the 196 HVC ENYCAP™ datasheet. Do not
jumper CFG1 to one unless jumpered to a source other than the 196 HVC ENYCAP™ at AEM BATT!
Vchrdy means that from this voltage on, the LDOs will work on this board by resistors defined to V = 2.9 V (assuming a dropout
of the HV LDO has enough margin to power up to 80 mA at 2.5 V).
Vovdis means a discharge cutoff voltage of the controller (entering shutdown), but on this board by resistors defined to
V = 2.8 V. Assuming no LDO is being used, the 196 HVC is not to be used below this voltage level and is therefore waiting to
be reset or kick-started by a USB port charge or other source current trigger. The RESET button on the board is only required
if CFG jumpers are modified and the resistor network is modified, e.g., to open or other values. By default, resistors are present
and define and hold all voltages.
LOW VOLTAGE AND SHUT DOWN PROCEDURES
Below the ENYCAP™ voltage of 1.9 V, the device enters a deep sleep state, waiting for a current source trigger or a bright
enough light condition for the PV cell to start the controller again. This is typically at around a 400 mV PV input voltage. More
details on this can be found in the datasheet of the AEM10941 from e-peas.
INTERFACE CONNECTOR SENS_CN
The interface connector on the board was routed to the best of many possibilities, with the aim of fitting the SensorXplorerTM
boards provided by Vishay.

TECHNICAL NOTE
There is an operation in place below the 2.8 V ENYCAP™ voltage, down to 1.9 V, for PV charging and MPPT. The operation of
this can be tracked by attaching a USB source, but keeping the AEM SRC jumper to PV1-3. Then the green Status 2 LED would
still blink (if the system came from deep sleep or zero, a PV voltage of at least 400 mV is required to start again).

Possible Implementation Guide
Since most sensors from Vishay will fit voltages of 1.7 V and 2.5 V in the future, the following backwards compatibility was
chosen as a best fit (also because on most current daughter boards only the following pins are connected: GND, VCC, SCL, and
SDA). The VEML6035 low power, high sensitivity I2C ambient light sensor, for example, is a board that requires minimum
operating voltage 1.7 V only. Others require 2.5 V at a minimum.

Replacements for IoT Nodes With 196 HVC ENYCAP™
Pin 7 / pin 10 is an input on the SensorXplorer mainboard (which does not interfere with providing 1.7 V here) and is not used /
connected on any sensor daughter board pin.
Pin 8 / pin 9 is an input on the SensorXplorer mainboard (which does not interfere with a logic switching ON the 2.5 V high
voltage). It can be demanded by a future sensor daughter board with a low voltage microcontroller permanently running and
switching ON its sensor component, which normally requires a higher voltage than 1.8 V upon sampling, e.g., for infrared
emitters, humidity sensors, proximity sensors, or RF transceivers.
Pin 4 / pin 13 is a 5 V input line to some sensor daughter boards and does not interfere with providing a periodic Status 2 signal.
For future implementations, this is a periodic life or trigger signal (once every 2 s to 3 s) from the V-harvester board. Then a
running RTC on a future daughter board is not required to wake up periodically. Instead, the Status 2 port trigger wake-up can
be used.
Pin 6 / pin 11 are the main 2.5 V output (similar to the main VCC = 3.3 V on the daughter boards), which can be enabled manually
from the V-Harvester board.
SIZE OF A MINIMAL IMPLEMENTATION
The total minimal size of an IoT sensor can be built with a base circuit around the controller chip totaling 12 mm x 12 mm =
~ 150 mm2. It is recommended to use at least two PV cells with 2 x 5 mm x 4 mm = 40 mm2. The 196 HVC ENYCAP™ has outer
dimensions of 7.5 mm x 7.5 mm = ~ 60 mm2.
With 10 % margin and spacing around, the total size of a circuit can be as small as 250 mm2 x 1.1 = 275 mm2.
The implementation would then have 13.8 Ws of storage energy and could harvest 2 mW average in direct sunlight. Output
power can be as a high as 2.5 V at 80 mA = 200 mW peak pulse power, and 25 mA as the maximum continuous current
presented by the 196 HVC ENYCAP™ 4 F, 4.2 V capacitor.

MEASUREMENT
With a PV cell as the input power - but with several tracking, maximizing effects (e.g. MPPT), and monitoring tasks triggered
periodically and sometimes at the same time - input and output power are dynamic. Therefore, it is difficult to calculate
efficiencies at a specific point in time.

Energy Harvesting: Eliminating Battery
Replacements for IoT Nodes With 196 HVC ENYCAP™
PRECAUTIONS
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Any input pin
Operating temperature
Storage temperature
5.5 V
-20 °C to +85 °C
-40 °C to +85 °C
Primary cell input should be between 0.6 V and 5 V.
Do not connect the jumper “short no PRIM” if a primary cell is attached. This short circuits the header PRIM.
Do not jumper CFG1 to one unless jumpered to a source other than the 196 HVC ENYCAP™ at AEM BATT!
External PV
An external PV cell can be of any voltage up to 5 V max. Dark periods will not discharge the storage element.
