This paper presents the design, fabrication, and testing of a self-powered full-wave active rectifier for low-voltage energy harvesting applications. The proposed concept is fabricated in a 0.35 μm low-threshold-voltage CMOS technology and features two stages, namely a negative-to-positive converter and an active diode stage. A rail-to-rail nonlinear comparator forms the backbone of the active diode...
Thermal issues have resulted in growing concerns among industries fabricating various types of devices, such as Chip Multiprocessors (CMP) and reconfigurable hardware devices. Since passive cooling costs have risen considerably and packaging for worst-case is no longer practical, dynamic thermal management techniques are being devised to combat thermal effects. For such techniques to be applied effectively,...
This paper proposes a simple technique to get maximum power of wind energy conversion system (WECS) without using sensors for wind and rotor speed of the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). It uses the measurements of DC current and DC voltage to obtain maximum power point tracking (MPPT) by controlling the duty cycle of the DC-DC boost converter switch. Moreover, a PI control is employed...
