to a power load, such as a microprocessor and/or a sensor
circuit. The amount of useful energy available is a function
of the capacity of the storage capacitor bank. Meanwhile,
an EH300/EH301 Series Module continue to accumulate
any energy generated by external energy sources. If exter-
nal energy input availability is high, output V
P
remains in an
ON state continuously, until such time that external energy
availability is lower than the power demand required by the
power load. As external energy input exceeds power load-
ing, +V increases until internal voltage clamp circuits limit it
to a maximum clamp voltage.
During normal operation, as power is drawn from an EH300/
EH301 Series Module, +V decreases in voltage. When +V
reaches V
L
, output V
P
switches to an OFF state and stops
supplying any further power to the power load. With built-in
hysteresis circuits within the Module, V
P
now remains in the
OFF state even when the external energy source starts
charging the capacitor bank again by importing fresh new
impulses of electrical energy. Once V
H
level is reached again,
output V
P
is then turned to the ON state again. Hence +V
voltage cycles between V
H
to V
L
voltage levels and then to
the OFF state. When in the ON state, V
P
can supply up to
1A of current for a limited time period as determined by the
stored useful energy and the energy demand by the power
load. An optional input/ouput pin V
R
functions as V
P
on/off
control (external input through 1KOhm) or as READY logi-
cal control (output) signal preceeding output V
P
switching.
Input energy charging times t
1
and t
2
are limited by input
energy available minus energy loss by an EH300/EH301
Series Module. The energy output time period t
3
is deter-
mined by the rate of energy used by the power load as a
function of energy stored. Low input energy hold time t
4
is
typically many orders of magnitude greater than the sum of
t

, t
2
and t

Initial Setup & Calibration
EH300/EH301 Series Modules are setup and calibrated at
the factory to standard specifications and settings. No user
setup is required. Optional user control signal and connec-
tion to external capacitor or battery storage banks are avail-
able at the output port. All EH300/EH301 Series Modules
