Um, mw is milliWatts not microWatts. That's a long way off still. A quick look at the product data sheet for the MM5130 device that you linked shows that the Gate Bias Voltage is 88 volts. This battery definitely will not be outputting that level of voltage. You'd need a metric shit tonne of them in series to get that kind of voltage.
MM5600 not MM5130
There is no data sheet for the MM5600 on the site or anywhere else I searched for the device. The MM5130 has the same 0.08 mW power consumption so it is highly likely the MM5600 has the same Gate Bias Voltage of 88 volts since the devices are in the same product family. Even if the MM5600 had a GBV of just 1 volt, this betavoltaic cell would still not be sufficient to drive it. You're being pedantic on and you are making assumptions that its lower power consumption is the only factor needed to make this battery usable. I'm not sure why you're championing the betavoltaic battery so hard since they have been around for a long time now and have obviously not found their way into any consumer product. Are you invested in this company or something?
I have no skin in this game, just like trolling. I don't care for vaporware, it doesn't help me in my field. I do know that there's gate switches that activate relays that use very very low current at very high voltage. Remember that watts is power, voltage is not power, power is a function of current and voltage. You can have incredibly high voltage and a tiny current for a low power switch that works on RF.
