Motion of a Legged Bidirectional Miniature Piezoelectric Robot Based on Traveling Wave Generation

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
This article reports on the locomotion performance of a miniature robot that features 3D-printed rigid legs driven by linear traveling waves (TWs). The robot structure was a millimeter-sized rectangular glass plate with two piezoelectric patches attached,

Prospects of Tunnel FETs in the Design of Power Management Circuits for Weak Energy Harvesting DC Sources

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2018
In this paper, a new tunnel FET (TFET)-based power management circuit (PMC) is proposed for weak dc energy harvesting sources. Thanks to their particular carrier injection mechanisms, TFETs can be used to design efficient energy harvesting circuits by ...

A High Accuracy Weak Voltage LED Analog Dimming Method

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
A weak voltage analog dimming method for high precision light emitting diode (LED) current control with N-Bits analog static offset calibration (N-Bits ASOC), dynamic offset cancellation (DOC) and K-times dimming duty to voltage (KD2V) conversion is ...

A 300-800MHz Tunable Filter and Linearized LNA applied in a Low-Noise Harmonic-Rejection RF-Sampling Receiver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A multiband flexible RF-sampling receiver aimed at software-defined radio is presented. The wideband RF sampling function is enabled by a recently proposed discrete-time mixing downconverter. This work exploits a voltage-sensing LNA preceded by a tunable

A 0.2 V, 23 nW CMOS Temperature Sensor for Ultra-Low-Power IoT Applications

open access: yesJournal of Low Power Electronics and Applications, 2016
We propose a fully on-chip CMOS temperature sensor in which a sub-threshold (sub-VT) proportional-to-absolute-temperature (PTAT) current element starves a current-controlled oscillator (CCO).

Equalization-Based Digital Background Calibration Technique for Pipelined ADCs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, we present a digital background calibration technique for pipelined analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). In this scheme, the capacitor mismatch, residue gain error, and amplifier nonlinearity are measured and then corrected in digital ...

Thermal budget of superconducting digital circuits at sub-kelvin temperatures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Superconducting single-flux-quantum (SFQ) circuits have so far been developed and optimized for operation at or above helium temperatures. The SFQ approach, however, should also provide potentially viable and scalable control and read-out circuits for ...

Repeater insertion to minimise delay in coupled interconnects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Signalling over long interconnect is a dominant issue in electronic chip design in current technologies, with the device sizes getting smaller and smaller and the circuits becoming ever larger.
