Nordic Semiconductor, a specialist in low-power wireless communication solutions, has enhanced the operational efficiency of smart devices through adaptive battery analytics and cloud integration.

Nordic announced on the 12th that it has introduced 'Nordic Fuel Gauge 2.0', a next-generation software-based fuel gauge solution for its power management ICs, at Embedded World 2026.

This upgrade focuses on more precisely analyzing the battery status of IoT devices and enabling long-term, stable operation.

The new solution uses an adaptive model that continuously analyzes battery performance changes and aging based on usage environment as well as battery charge status.

This allows manufacturers to obtain data that reflects battery characteristics that occur in the field, enabling more accurate battery management throughout the device's lifespan.

In particular, Nordic Fuel Gauge 2.0 is integrated with the Memport-based nRF Cloud, allowing remote monitoring of battery status, charging history, and performance indicators without the need to build a separate cloud system.

For companies that operate large-scale IoT devices, it is possible to improve maintenance efficiency and create an environment where abnormal signs can be detected in advance. It is significant in that it exists.

Unlike existing fuel gauge ICs that rely on fixed calculation methods, this solution achieves high accuracy through a software algorithm that utilizes voltage, current, and temperature data.

It enables precise measurements without a dedicated IC, reducing system costs and the number of components. It also consumes no additional power in sleep mode, making it suitable for low-power IoT devices.

It also helps address strengthening regulations regarding battery replacement. By clearly understanding battery condition, manufacturers can predict when to replace the battery, ensuring both product reliability and sustainability.

This is expected to be an important factor for manufacturers seeking to respond to global environmental regulations, such as the European Union's battery regulations.

A Nordic Semiconductor representative said, “This Fuel Gauge 2.0 can be used not only with our nRF series, but also in various MCU and wireless SoC environments.”
