ZF Electronics New Energy Harvesting Wireless Switch as A Batteryless Alternative for Wired Micro-switches
Auerbach, 19th September 2012 – Cherry is introducing a new energy harvesting wireless switch as a batteryless alternative for wired micro-switches. The energy harvesting switch offers many advantages in applications where a complex wire assembly would be disproportionate to the actual application. In 2008 the German company ZF acquired Cherry Corp.
The required RF-energy is created by the mechanical actuation of the switch and the data is transmitted wireless via RF-technology.
Because of this, there is no need for expensive and complex connection systems and no wear of any cable connection. Thanks to its compact design the wireless switch is very easy to install – even in hard-to-reach places.
Cherry’s batteryless energy harvesting wireless switch offers a high energy yield of two times 0.2 up to 0.5mWs, a long mechanical life of up to 1.000.000 operations, and is fully network-compatible. Several available radio frequencies (e.g. 868MHz, 915MHz, and 2.4GHz) enable worldwide use in numerous applications. A flexible pairing allows for the operation of several receivers with one switch (and vice versa). A ‘unique ID’ excludes mutual interference between different RF switches. As there is no need to change or dispose any batteries, the switches are very environmentally friendly.
