This paper presents a neural recording amplifier array suitable for large-scale integration with multielectrode arrays in very low-power microelectronic cortical implants. The proposed amplifier is one of the most energy-efficient structures reported to da ...
In recent years, bulk acoustic wave resonators (BAW) in combination with RF circuits have shown a big potential in achieving the low-power consumption and miniaturization level required to address wireless sensor nodes (WSN) applications. A lot of work has ...
This paper describes the analysis and design of a dynamic supply CMOS audio power amplifier for low-power applications. The dynamic supply technique is used to increase the efficiency of a class AB power amplifier. The polarization of its output stage is a ...
This research work deals with the design of linear CMOS RF power amplifiers. Two important aspects are treated: efficiency enhancement and frequency-tunable capability. For this purpose, two different integrated circuits were realized in a 0.11 µm technolo ...
We present a concept of "active material" with variable acoustic properties, being constituted of an electroacoustic transducer which acoustic impedance can be changed by an active mean. Among the different ways to obtain variable acoustic properties on an ...
A pixel circuit for CMOS active sensor imaging applications is presented. An in-pixel open-loop voltage amplifier achieves efficient bandwidth limitation using low capacitance values, and it allows excellent reduction of downstream readout circuit noise, t ...
