A 0.5 V 2.5 mu W/MHz Microcontroller with Analog-Assisted Adaptive Body Bias PVT Compensation with 3.13 nW/kB SRAM Retention in 55 nm Deeply-Depleted Channel CMOS

Andreas Peter Burg, David Ruffieux

Microcontroller systems operating at low supply voltage in near- or sub-threshold regime suffer both from increased effects of PVT (Process, Voltage, Temperature) variation and from a larger share of leakage on overall power due to the reduced frequency. W ...

A 2.4-GHz low power polar transmitter for wireless body area network applications

Christian Enz, Vladimir Kopta, Franz Xaver Pengg

A 2.4 GHz low power polar transmitter is proposed in this paper. A dynamic biasing circuit, controlled by a digital envelope signal, is used as a direct digital-to-RF envelope converter. It effectively linearizes the input-output characteristic of the over ...
