DESCRIPTION
The Powercast Powerharvester® Chipset includes the
PCC110 RF-to-DC converter and the PCC210 Boost
Converter. The Chipset is used in conjunction with
numerous Powercast Reference Designs, including the
P1110 and P2110 Powerharvester Modules. The
PCC110 is designed to maximize RF to DC conversion
efficiency, up to 75%, while supporting a wide range
of input power levels, load voltages, and frequency
bands. The PCC210 is designed to efficiently boost
low input voltages to provide extended range and
provide a regulated output voltage to a load device.
