Always-on devices shouldn’t feel like hand warmers. Reduce switching power to extend runtime, improve comfort, and unlock higher-performance features in tight power envelopes.
Battery size is capped by form factor and comfort. That means features get throttled: display refresh, sensor fusion, wireless duty cycle, and on-device intelligence.
LPP targets the core switching losses so wearables can do more work per joule—without turning performance into heat.
Thermal limits and battery pack weight cap experience quality and runtime.
Always-on workloads: sensing, health metrics, notifications, wireless, display.
Fitness and asset trackers where battery replacement becomes a fleet-scale cost.
Use LPP where switching dominates power: arrays, clocking, and high-toggle logic. Validate on one block, then expand.
Longer runtime, cooler skin-contact surfaces, and headroom for features that were previously “too expensive” in battery terms.
