Comments Off on Maximum Energy Efficiency Tracking Circuits for Converter-Less Energy Harvesting Sensor Nodes
Posted in: IEEE 2017, MATLAB
Maximum Energy Efficiency Tracking Circuits for Converter-Less Energy Harvesting Sensor Nodes Abstract: Converter-less supply architecture is promising for energy harvesting sensor nodes, due to their high conversion efficiency, low cost, and easy integration. However, lack of a dc-dc converter precludes the electronic load operating under the voltage for optimal energy efficiency, since the output voltage […]
