We present a novel CMOS on-chip temperature sensor for use in low-voltage low-power applications. The sensor uses diode-connected BJTs to generate a PWM signal whose duty cycle is proportional to absolute temperature with high accuracy over a wide temperature range. The duty cycle is determined with a simple digital counter and converted to a digital code. Compared to other time-domain temperature...
In this paper, we present a low voltage, low power, 2.4-GHz frequency synthesizer designed in 0.35-μm CMOS technology. The frequency synthesizer is implemented with an Integer-N phase-locked loop (PLL). The PLL can achieve a frequency tuning step of 1-MHz and is capable of covering the whole 2.4-GHz ISM band. The voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) output frequency is firstly divided by a novel tri-modulus...
An ultra-low-power, low-noise sensor interface IC dedicated for bio-signal acquisition is presented in this paper. The proposed system architecture is optimized to achieve a better trade-off between power consumption and noise figure. A 0.05 ~ 200 Hz bandpass function is embedded within the front-end amplifier, and a wide bandwidth buffer is inserted between the front-end amplifier and ADC to facilitate...
The demand for health-monitoring products is increasing worldwide. Low-power and low-voltage attributes are important concerns that need to be addressed in circuits used for personal health-monitoring applications, to achieve a long battery life. In this paper, a biomedical amplifier is designed for electrocardiogram (ECG) signal detection. The design comprises of a high pass filter (HPF), an operational...
