The Nichicon LTO battery redefines what design engineers can expect from compact energy storage in demanding embedded systems. Unlike traditional lithium-ion chemistries, this lithium titanate oxide (LTO) cell prioritises safety, resilience, and consistent performance—even under conditions that would compromise conventional batteries.
Thanks to its extremely low internal resistance (ESR), the Nichicon LTO battery is ideal for pulse-heavy applications where short bursts of power are needed without thermal stress. Whether it’s an edge AI node transmitting via satellite or a Bluetooth beacon logging and syncing intermittently, the LTO battery ensures clean, rapid energy delivery every time. Withstanding high charge/discharge cycles without degradation, it brings peace of mind to long-term deployments.
Engineers building ultra-reliable products will appreciate the simplicity of charging. Unlike Li-ion chemistries that require careful current and voltage regulation, the Nichicon LTO battery supports simpler management circuitry. It tolerates aggressive charging regimes without risking thermal runaway or battery failure, making it a compelling choice in systems with limited space or thermal headroom.
One of its most compelling use cases is in energy harvesting designs. The battery thrives in scenarios where ambient power is slowly accumulated—solar trickle, vibration, or RF—before being used in powerful transmission bursts. This behaviour makes it ideal as either a standalone storage element or a buffer complementing a primary battery in wireless, remote, or mission-critical systems.
Beyond its electrical performance, the Nichicon LTO chemistry is physically robust. These cells are non-flammable, resistant to swelling, and maintain stable voltage profiles across extreme temperatures and cycles. They’re even safe to puncture—an impressive benchmark for portable power applications.
While its energy density is modest compared to Li-ion, it delivers unmatched predictability. For many embedded applications, longevity, safety, and consistent power delivery far outweigh the need for raw capacity. That’s where this cell shines—bringing the reliability of a supercapacitor and the endurance of a rechargeable cell into a single package.
Whether you’re developing an industrial tracker, medical wearable, or remote sensor, the Nichicon LTO battery offers a drop-in solution that delivers clean power, simplified design, and long-term durability.
