Figure 15From: Implantable RF telemetry for cardiac monitoring in the murine heart: a tutorial reviewBlock digram of energy harvesting front-end circuit showing the inductors, rectifier/charge pump and closed-loop regulation with amplifier and bandgap (BG) voltage/current reference, (the compensation R C C C network not shown). We characterized the circuit operation both with M00 included, i.e. when V reg′≠Vreg, and without it, i.e. when V reg′ = Vreg.Back to article page
