A novel passive wireless-interrogation strain sensor is presented in this paper. The sensor
employs a planar inductor with a series connected interdigital capacitor to eliminate the wire …

High temperature sensors capable of operating in harsh environments are needed in order
to prevent disasters caused by structural or system functional failures due to increasing …

We demonstrated a fully integrated isolated dc-dc converter using coreless micro-
transformers. The transformers are switched resonantly at 170 MHz to achieve efficient …

Half-bridge gate drivers have been widely used in a variety of applications, such as motor
drives, power supplies, and plasma display panels. However, they are difficult to use …

This paper presents a review and summary of the PSMA “PSiP2PwrSoC” special project that
investigated the technology and performance underpinning recent commercial …

This preliminary road map is provided for state-of-the-art technologies and trends toward
integration of point-of-load converters. This paper encompasses an extended survey of …

Implementation of on-chip passive elements and efficient regulation schemes are key
aspects of fully integrated dc-dc converter design. This paper presents a 50-MHz fully …

A new analytical switching loss model for power MOSFETs driven by the current source
driver (CSD) is presented in this paper. The gate current diversion problem, which …

The increasing number of efficient voltage conversions realized in small volumes in many
applications has introduced a trend towards small-form-factor DC-DC converters with …

Modern portable micro-systems like biomedical implants and ad-hoc wireless transceiver
micro-sensors continue to integrate more functions into smaller devices, which result in low …
