Version 3 of GreenSense PCB

Yuktix GreenSense is a battery-powered ( low power ) wireless device originally developed only to support one kind of wireless communication (Sub_Ghz). The first version has an on-board battery and a lot of unnecessary and more of general-purpose PCB. The second version has both DC and battery-powered power processing unit. Although both the versions were highly optimized for low power consumption ( average power consumption was around 22 uA during sleep mode and a 2.2 Ah battery could support for more than 1 year of operation with 10-minute data push interval ) and it requires specific hardware to cut the power of some of the sensors.

This limitation made us think to add a solar charging unit and in our third version, we decided using the SSC ( single-cell solar charger ). The third version schematic design is complete, PCB rendering is done ( CAD design ) and we are in the process of printing and assembling the unit. We will share more details and specifications soon.
