This paper discusses and compares the design of two high-efficiency 4-stage voltage-doubler UHF RFID rectifier operating at 915 MHz. The first rectifier uses conventional 180-nm CMOS transistors applying a technique of internal cancellation in order to compensate the high value of their threshold voltages (Vth). The second proposed rectifier uses zero-Vth transistors, which are available in a 130...
