3.4.2 Battery Life Calculations

The following parameters affect the battery-life and power consumption for the entire system:

  • Capacity rating of battery (mAH)
  • Average off-state current consumption (mA)
  • Off-state duration (s)
  • Average on-state current consumption (mA)
  • On-state duration (s)

Equation 1 describes the estimated battery life for this design:

Equation 1. GUID-20210407-CA0I-B25G-9QQ3-7DVTHGGCTR8L-low.gif

Where:

  • IONAVG is the average on-state current consumption in mA
  • TON is the on-state duration in seconds
  • IOFFAVG is the average off-state current consumption in mA
  • TOFF is the off-state duration in seconds
  • Derating factor accounts for self aging of the battery - typically 80%

Substituting available battery capacity = 2100 mAH, TON = 5 s, number of activations per day = 5, IONAVG measured = 200 mA, IOFFAVG measured = 2 mA, TOFF per day = (24 × 60 × 60) - TON = 86375 s from Equation 1, the estimate for one month of battery life is shown in Equation 2.

Equation 2. GUID-20210422-CA0I-QDLF-QVHT-Z3RZ7K6WGP7H-low.gif

Software can be further optimized to achieve the standby current consumption of < 0.3 mA (CC3235MODS standby current of 120 μA for MCU in LPDS mode and NWP in idle mode), CC1352R standby current of 3 μA, 5 μA shutdown current for other peripherals and up to 100 μA current due to passives). This results in battery life of higher than 6 months as shown in Equation 3. Battery life of 1.5 years is achieved with 6000 mAH battery capacity for similar conditions. Table 3-2 and Table 3-3 show battery lifetime versus the number of activations for different battery capacities.

Table 3-2 Battery Lifetime vs Number of Activations for 6000 mAH Battery
BATTERY CAPACITY (mAH) ACTIVE DURATION (s) NUMBER OF ACTIVATIONS PER DAY BATTERY LIFE
6000 5 5 1.5 years (18 months)
6000 5 10 1.3 years (16 months)
6000 5 15 1.1 years (14 months)
6000 5 20 1 year (12 months)
6000 5 25 0.9 year (11 months)
6000 5 30 0.8 year (10 months)
6000 5 35 0.7 year (9 months)
Table 3-3 Battery Lifetime vs Number of Activations for 2100 mAH Battery
BATTERY CAPACITY (mAH) ACTIVE DURATION (s) NUMBER OF ACTIVATIONS PER DAY BATTERY LIFE
2100 5 5 6.4 months
2100 5 10 5.5 months
2100 5 15 5 months
2100 5 20 4.3 months
2100 5 25 4 months
2100 5 30 3.5 months
2100 5 35 3.2 months

To optimize the system for even longer battery life, optimize the following factors:

  • Longer TOFF for each device
  • Shorter TON for each device
  • Lower ION and IOFF for each device
  • Lessen the number-of-activations per day
