Power Optimization
Power optimization is critical for IoT devices. By carefully aligning hardware and firmware, I extend battery life from weeks to months, ensuring energy-efficient operation without compromising performance.
Hardware Verification
Proper hardware design is essential for minimizing power consumption. I conduct:
- Analysis of circuit design for leakage currents
- Verification of power supply circuits and peripherals
- Recommendations for hardware improvements to reduce energy waste
This ensures the hardware is optimized for low-power operation.
Firmware Optimization
Firmware plays a key role in reducing energy usage. I develop software that:
- Puts unused processor components into low-power modes
- Manages peripherals to minimize power draw
- Implements efficient sleep and wake-up cycles
This integration ensures the firmware complements the hardware for maximum efficiency.
Algorithm Optimization
Energy-efficient algorithms are crucial for IoT applications. I optimize software by:
- Streamlining algorithms to reduce computational load
- Batching tasks to minimize processor wake-ups
- Prioritizing operations to match energy profiles
This ensures the device uses energy intelligently, extending battery life.
