摘要： An energy harvester circuit is provided. The energy harvester circuit includes a harvesting module for extracting energy from an ambient source. A bias flip module manages the manner in which voltage across the harvesting module transitions when input current from the harvesting module changes direction so as to allow a majority of the charge available from the harvesting module to be extracted. A voltage transitioning module is shared amongst one or more DC-DC converters for efficient energy management.

摘要： An energy harvesting system is provided that includes a startup module for starting the energy harvesting system operation from a completely OFF state. The startup module uses mechanical vibrations due to motion to trigger a switch which permits the startup module to charge one or more first capacitive elements so to as reach a first defined voltage. A storage module buffers energy obtained from a thermoelectric harvester to be used by a load device. The storage module commences storing energy from the thermoelectric harvester when the first defined voltage has been reached allowing charging of one or more second capacitive elements to reach a second defined voltage. A DC-DC converter module provides regulated voltage to the load device after energy has been transferred from the thermoelectric harvester. The DC-DC converter module determines whether the second defined voltage has been reached and releases stored energy in the one or more first capacitive elements and the load device.

摘要： Edge or contour information is extracted from an image array by filtering and encoded. In order to improve reproduction accuracy, two separate filters are used to detect edge information. One of the filters detects "sharp" edges, or edges in which the discontinuity in pixel intensity values occurs over a range of a few pixels. The other filter detects "level" edges in which the pixel intensity value discontinuity occurs over a larger range of pixels than the "sharp" edges. The "smooth" areas between edges or contours are assumed to vary continuously between the contours, but for efficient implementation, a one-dimensional linear interpolation is used to regenerate the contour information between edges. In addition, to further improve performance, a line is fitted to the pixel intensity data. The end values of this line are then used for the pixel intensity data. In order to still further improve performance, the pixel intensity values associated with each contour are divided into groups and each group is then encoded. Another improvement is accomplished by mean coding the residual error.

摘要： A time-interleaved (TI) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architecture employs a low resolution coarse ADC channel that samples an input analog signal at a Nyquist rate and facilitates background calibration of timing-skew error without interrupting normal operation to sample/convert the input signal. The coarse ADC channel provides a timing reference for multiple higher resolution TI ADC channels that respectively sample the input signal at a lower sampling rate. The coarse ADC digital output is compared to respective TI ADC digital outputs to variably adjust in time corresponding sampling clocks of the TI ADC channels so as to substantially align them with the sampling clock of the coarse ADC channel, thus reducing timing-skew error. In one example, the coarse ADC output provides the most significant bits (MSBs) of the respective TI ADC digital outputs to further improve conversion speed and reduce power consumption in these channels.

摘要： An ASIC for monitoring wideband GHz spectrum to sense respective frequency components present in the spectrum. The ASIC implements Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) techniques to facilitate identification of one or more frequency components of a sparse signal after the signal is sub-sampled at a rate below the Nyquist criterion. The ASIC computes a first Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of a first sub-sampled set of samples of a time-varying signal representing the monitored spectrum and sampled at a first sampling rate, and further computes a second FFT of a second sub-sampled set of samples of the time-varying signal sampled at a second sampling rate different from the first sampling rate. In one example, each of the first FFT and the second FFT is a low-radix FFT to facilitate a low-power and low-cost ASIC implementation of wideband spectrum sensing.
