Special Session 2

 

Special Session 2: Advanced Low-Power CMOS Circuits for Energy Harvesting, Time-Domain Processing, Direct Sensing, and Precision Analog Applications

Description: This session focuses on recent advances in low-voltage, low-power CMOS circuit design for energy-efficient and emerging electronic systems. It will cover CMOS rectifiers and RF-to-DC converters for RF energy harvesting, time-mode circuits and time-domain signal processing, active impedance realization and impedance-scaling techniques, and low-power current-reference generators. The session will highlight innovative circuit architectures, design methodologies, performance optimization, and practical applications in energy harvesting, biomedical electronics, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and smart sensing systems.
