MDT’s TMR1370 ultra‑low‑power magnetic switch enables >2‑year standby in CGM devices, extending battery life for medical wearables
Executive summary: MDT launched the TMR1370 magnetic switch IC with a maximum supply current of 50 nA, enabling more than two years of standby operation in CGM devices. The ultra‑low‑power design markedly extends battery life for medical wearables, reducing maintenance needs and healthcare costs while strengthening MDT’s position in the magnetic sensor market.
Who is involved: MultiDimension Technology Co., Ltd. (MDT); CGM device manufacturers; end‑users of continuous glucose monitors.
Likely next: MDT will integrate the TMR1370 into its CGM sensor lineup and seek adoption by medical‑equipment partners in the coming months.
MultiDimension Technology (MDT) announced the TMR1370 magnetic switch IC, which draws a maximum of 50 nA and supports over two years of standby operation in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems. The component expands MDT’s existing CGM sensor portfolio and addresses the growing demand for ultra‑low‑power electronics in medical wearables. By cutting power consumption to nanoamp levels, the device could reduce battery‑replacement frequency and lower total cost of ownership for patients and providers.
