From Vision to Execution
As EE Times writes in the 2025 edition:
“Nanopower has developed a subthreshold voltage IC technology called nPZero that reduces power consumption by up to 90% in various operating modes… allowing circuits to operate in the nanowatt range while maintaining functionality and responsiveness without an active microcontroller.”
This capability opens up new possibilities for battery-free or multi-year battery life in sensor nodes, beacons, and other energy-constrained IoT applications.
Scaling and Strengthening
The listing also recognizes key developments over the past year:
-
First nPZero chip samples are set to ship to customers in 2025
-
Strategic demos launched with TDK, Maxell, and Epishine
-
Appointment of Svein-Egil Nielsen, the former CTO of Nordic Semiconductor, as Chairman of the Board to support company growth
Together, these milestones demonstrate how Nanopower is bridging deep-tech innovation with commercial readiness.
Power Efficiency That Lasts
We believe the future of electronics is not just about performance. Whether it’s in smart buildings, industrial monitoring, logistics, or wearable tech, nPZero enables applications where long life and energy autonomy are no longer tradeoffs.
It's an energy boost to be recognized by the EE Times for the second year as we write the next chapters of the Nanopower story.
