Introduction:
The EH-EDU-1 educational development kit serves as a superb introduction as well as evaluation
tool for all looking to leverage energy harvesting in powering electronic devices. This toolset is
perfect for anyone - ranging from beginners and students to professionals. The educational
development kit comes with the following parts:
1. Evaluation Board
2. Xidas’ UNIV-1: Energy Harvesting Module for Power Management
3. Xidas’ VEG: Vibration Energy Harvesting Generator
4. PowerFilm’s LL200-2.4-37: Indoor Solar Photovoltaic Cell
5. Xidas’ RHB-1530: High Pulse, Rechargeable Battery to store energy harvested
As listed above, The Xidas EHM-UNIV-1 is a small, turn-key surface mount module designed to
capture small amounts of harvested energy from sources such as photovoltaic cells, piezoelectric,
electromechanical, and thermoelectric generators, and continuously trickle charges storage
elements like rechargeable Li-Ion batteries, thin film batteries, or conventional capacitors. This
module is especially useful to power small electronic devices and battery-free systems. The
development kit also comes with one Xidas VEG for vibrational applications and one PowerFilm
indoor solar panel for solar applications. This gives users the flexibility to try out two common
energy harvesting types and see which one is best for their application. Furthermore, the
evaluation board comes equipped with both a system output and regulated output, to give users
the option depending on their resistor load or connected sensor.
