Enabling Optimal Power Generation of Flow Cell Arrays in 3D MPSoCs with On-Chip Switched Capacitor Converters

David Atienza Alonso, Marina Zapater Sancho, Alexandre Sébastien Julien Levisse, Halima Najibi

Flow cell arrays (FCAs) provide efficient on-chip liquid cooling and electrochemical power generation capabilities in three-dimensional multi-processor systems-on-chip (3DMPSoCs). When connected to power delivery networks (PDNs) of chips, the current flowi ...

Electrical energy generated by silicone elastomers filled with nanospring- carbon- nanotubes

Frank Nüesch

Dielectric elastomer generators (DEGs) are flexible capacitors that convert mechanical into electrical energy. They rely on an external voltage source to charge the capacitor during each operation cycle. An alternative to this is an autonomous DEG which op ...

Virtual Submodule Concept for Fast Semi-Numerical Modular Multilevel Converter Loss Estimation

Drazen Dujic, Alexandre François Christe

During the design phase of a modular multilevel converter (MMC), an accurate loss evaluation of the submodule (SM) plays an important role. In this paper, a method based on the analytical description of the MMC key waveforms that allows to directly obtain ...
