Omnidirectional Shape Proprioception for Untethered Shape Memory Alloy‐Driven Soft Robotic Arms

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A lightweight, modular soft robotic arm employs SMA actuation and a multi‐Hall‐magnet sensing system to achieve accurate omnidirectional shape proprioception. Each 35 g segment enables scalable assembly, while robust proprioception supports versatile navigation and manipulation in complex, unstructured environments.

A 40.68‐MHz Active Rectifier Using PLL and PWM Control of DC‐DC Converter for ON/OFF Delay Compensation

International Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications, EarlyView.
A ramp‐based phase‐locked loop (RPLL) active rectifier operating at 40.68 MHz compensates switching delay variations to improve phase alignment. The proposed architecture achieves 90.3% peak power conversion efficiency and 98.0% voltage conversion ratio for high‐frequency wireless power transfer in implantable medical devices.
