Hi guys,
I have a requirement to power a circuit by battery for as long as possible and I need a few ideas.
The circuit is a PIC and an RF receiver module. The voltage is 5V, current draw is around 4mA and will peak at times to 10mA but only for a few seconds a few times each day.
The problem is what do I use for power that I hope will last for 1 year. Buck/Boost seems a possible solution but I don't have experience with them.....any wisdom will be warmly received...
Thanks
Ray
