摘要
We propose a VBR (voltage-boost rectifier) circuit based on the 0.18-mu m Si CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) technology, which is designed for vibrational energy harvesters utilizing environmental vibrations. The VBR employs a single-end Dickson type charge-pump topology, and the circuit would be realized as a monolithic chip. The evaluation results obtained by multi-physics simulations on a circuit simulator reveal that the proposed circuit can deliver boosted DC voltage from the input of sub-threshold AC voltage.
