Solar reader provides proof for self-sufficient devices
"Technological approach to self-sufficiency
Self-sufficiency implies that power supply needs to come from a solar cell and power budget would be quite limited. Therefore all components necessary to realize the electronic table of contents had to be "Ultra Low Power". With its Memory LCD technology and a line-up of mini solar panels, Sharp offers two key components for self-sufficient solutions. Further, with the LPC1114, NXP has provided a device that includes one of the most efficient processors currently on the market."
