Subthreshold Energy Harvesters Circuits for Biomedical Implants Applications
Journal Title: EAI Endorsed Transactions on Energy Web - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
This paper reviews the state-of-art of the subthreshold level design energy harvesters for powering biomedical implants. Power consumption and lifespan are crucial requirements for the electronic circuitry of implantable systems. In order to meet these challenging requirements, a design for an energy harvester that operates in a subthreshold level offers a promising solution.
