Ultra-low power semiconductors expand beyond 'battery life' to 'AI, security, and operations'
Published2026.04.23 03:06The ultra-low-power semiconductor competition has evolved beyond simply minimizing current to become a system-level competition that addresses connectivity, security, AI, and operational efficiency within the power budget. Against this backdrop, we have organized a session to examine ultra-low-power power semiconductor solutions across various segments: mass-market IoT (tags, beacons, ESL), wearables and healthcare, smart metering and industrial sensors, battery-free devices (energy harvesting), long-range IoT (asset tracking, smart cities), and ultra-low-power edge AI.
