In this paper, a thermoelectric conversion system for multiple heat sources is proposed. For design convenience, the overall system employs only a single-stage converter. Such a converter uses coupling inductors and switched capacitors to increase the vo...

In this paper, a novel dynamic body-driven ultra-low voltage (ULV) comparator is presented. The proposed topology takes advantage of the back-gate configuration by driving the input transistors? gates with a clocked positive feedback loop made of two AND...

In this paper, we propose a fully standard-cell-based common-mode feedback (CMFB) loop with an explicit voltage reference to improve the CMRR of pseudo-differential standard-cell-based amplifiers and to stabilize the dc output voltage. This latter featur...

This work proposes a truly compact MOSFET model that contains only four parameters to assist an integrated circuits (IC) designer in a design by hand. The four-parameter model (4PM) is based on the advanced compact MOSFET (ACM) model and was implemented ...

In this paper, we introduce a novel tree-based architecture which allows the implementation of Ultra-Low-Voltage (ULV) amplifiers. The architecture exploits a body-driven input stage to guarantee a rail-to-rail input common mode range and body-diode load...
