We're proud to share that Nanopower Semiconductor has been featured in the September 2025 issue of EPDT Magazine, one of the leading European publications for electronics design. In the article, our Business Development Manager, Jan Frode Bergsø, is interviewed about a transformative approach to ultra-low power sensor systems, one that could cut energy usage by up to 90%.
Energy Efficiency Isn’t Just a Feature, It’s a Strategy
In the interview, Jan Frode Bergsø outlines a fundamental shift in how we think about IoT endpoints: most systems spend the vast majority of time in monitoring mode, consuming energy even when no useful data is being transmitted.
The solution? Offload the MCU monitoring work to a dedicated ultra-low power companion chip, like nPZero, which only wakes the host MCU when it actually needs to respond.
