A low-power pulse position modulation (PPM) demodulator has been developed for remotely powered batteryless implantable devices. The required power for the implantable device is provided by the magnetic coupling with the external array of powering of coils ...
In this work, a complete passive UHF RFID system for capacitive sensing applications is developed to be used in food quality monitoring and supply chain management. All the components of the RFID system including the base station, the base station antenna, ...
A low power SAR logic-based resistive sensor readout circuit is proposed. A high sensitivity thermistor is used for local temperature measurements. The need for a low-noise front-end voltage amplifier is avoided by employing time-domain operation. In each ...

State feedback coupling between the capacitor voltage and inductor current deteriorates notably the performance during transients of voltage and current regulators in stand-alone systems based on voltage source inverters. A decoupling technique is proposed ...
The Smart Transformer, a solid-state transformer with control and communication functionalities, can be the ideal solution for integrating storage into the grid. By leveraging the knowledge of the grid state of distribution grids thanks to smart meters and ...
In this paper, a multi-level wordline driver scheme is presented to improve 6T-SRAM read and write stability. The proposed wordline driver generates a shaped pulse during the read mode and a boosted wordline during the write mode. During read, the shaped p ...
A non-isolated DC-DC converter is presented, based on the current diverter principle. The converter is foreseen for large power electronic applications where normally the converters are fed from DC supplies at a typical voltage level of around one or two k ...
In this work, the design of a passive UHF RFID tag for sensor applications is described. The system level design issues are discussed taking into account the possible operation scenarios. Among the blocks in the tag, the emphasis is on the design of the re ...
