Features and Benefits
Designers of disposable and single-use electronic devices need power solutions that balance increasingly complex form-factor constraints, power requirements and environmental factors, without compromising performance or cost. These battery solutions must offer safe and economical construction that provides sufficient mechanical flexibility to conform to modern product designs. Batteries also need to deliver consistent voltage optimized for single-use electronics..
Thin-Film Batteries from Molex address these challenges by combining a thin, flexible form factor with a reliable low-power battery design that enables safe disposal. These flexible batteries can be applied to curved surfaces, enabling seamless integration into space-constrained and nontraditional designs, and are available in 1.5 or 3.0V configurations that deliver reliable power to a variety of single-use applications. Thin-Film Batteries from Molex contain no heavy metals, minimizing regulatory and disposal concerns by providing an alternative to lithium batteries.
