Home / Products / PowerSage™

Packet Digital's PowerSage is the only product offered today with the ability to optimize power consumption in an entire electronic system. PowerSage resides outside the application processor control, autonomously monitoring and distributing power. This holistic approach to power management improves battery life up to 400%.

The power management solutions offered by Texas Instruments and National Semiconductor optimize the power consumption of the application processor only. In a cell phone, the application processor accounts for only 20% of the power consumed by the system. Assuming the upper limit of 70% reduction in application processor power consumption that the Texas Instruments and National Semiconductor product offerings claim, they can reduce overall system power consumption by only 14%. In comparison, PowerSage reduces system power consumption by up to 80%--five times what TI or National can provide.

PowerSage also offers advanced power management across platforms, operating systems, and devices, including digital music players, laptops, mobile phones, cameras and ultra mobile PCs. PowerSage:

• Monitors activity across an entire system, delivering power only when needed
• Controls clocks and supply voltages in real-time, system-wide, outside the microprocessor
• Reduces the costs, weight and size of consumer electronic devices
• Decreases time-to-market based on intelligent power design
