Abstract:This paper presents a compact and efficient integrated interface circuit for piezo-electric energy harvesting. While the state-of-the-art interface circuits require the use of either an external inductor or a significant number of additional capacitors to achieve high voltage flip and improve power efficiency, the proposed Full Active Rectifier on Flipping Capac-itor (FAR-FC) is based on a reduced set of flipping capacitors and an active rectifier to efficiently flip the voltage across the piezoelec-tric trans… Show more
