Mobile Application platform for Rechargeable Systems
More and more manufacturers are depending on intelligent battery management solutions. Therefore, the main target of the "MARS" development platform is to enable engineers to design their own mobile power supply with up to 60 W and with one or two smart batteries.
"MARS" features four function units that can be used whenever required: From these function units the developer picks just the ones needed and leave out the elements not required.
Additionally "MARS" can automatically switch from one voltage source to another within just a few microseconds, making it well suited as an uninterruptible power supply. "MARS" is stored in the ACPI registries provided for the purpose using BIOS in Kontron ETX® and COM Express® modules.
