Abstract

Deep tissue energy harvesters are of increasing interest in the development of battery-less implantable devices. This paper presents a fully integrated ultra-low quiescent power management interface. It has power optimization and impedance matching between a piezoelectric energy harvester and the functional load that could be potentially powered by the heart's mechanical motions. The circuit has been designed in 0.18-µm CMOS technology. It dissipates 189.8 nW providing two voltage outputs of 1.4 V and 4.2 V. The simulation results show an output power 8.2x times of an ideal full-bridge rectifier without an external power supply. The design has the potential for use in self-powered heart implantable devices as it is capable providing stable output voltages from a cold startup.
