Researchers demonstrated a novel technique to efficiently convert ambient low-power radiofrequency signals into DC power. This 'rectifier' technology can be easily integrated into energy harvesting ...

Why harvesting low-level RF is difficult. How a new spin-rectifier implementation addresses a major limitation. The results achieved with the new component. Energy harvesting has lots of positive ...

Front-end limiter circuits using Schottky and PIN diodes can provide needed protection in communications and other RF systems. However, designers still must deal with the upper-frequency limit problem ...

Today’s mixed-voltage systems often use bidirectional level translation as a way to improve efficiency while saving power. There are several ways to implement bidirectional translation, but one of the ...
