Enovix launches AI-1 silicon-anode smartphone battery platform

Enovix (ENVX) Corporation announced the launch of the AI-1 platform, its Artificial Intelligence Class batteries for the next generation of mobile smartphones that require significantly higher total energy storage and power to perform AI functions locally. This revolutionary silicon-anode smartphone battery platform is protected by 190 Enovix architecture-specific patents that enable the use of 100% active silicon anodes. Last week, the company sampled its first 7,350 milliampere-hour AI-1 batteries to a leading smartphone OEM for qualification in the first ever 100% silicon-anode battery smartphone launch. With energy density exceeding 900 watt-hours per liter and advanced capabilities for high discharge rate and long cycle life, Enovix believes AI-1 is the highest energy density battery commercially available in the market today. The company’s patented battery architecture overcomes the notorious silicon anode swelling problems, enabling exceptional performance without compromising safety or longevity. The higher energy density provided by the AI-1 enables smartphone manufacturers to take full advantage of AI-enabled applications without requiring frequent charging cycles.
