A DC-DC converter architecture for low-power, high-resistance thermoelectric generators for use in body-powered designs

Creator:

Miller, Brian A.

Abstract:

This thesis presents a low power DC-DC converter suitable for harvesting energy from high impedance thermoelectric generators (TEGs) for the use in body powered electronics. The chip has been fabricated in a 130nm CMOS technology. To meet the power demands of body powered networks, a novel dual-path architecture capable of...
