Abstract

With the emergence of nanoscale material-based energy harvesters such as thermoelectric generator and microbial fuel cells, energy-harvesting-assisted self-powered electronics systems are gaining popularity. The state-of-the-art low-voltage CMOS boost converter, a critical voltage converter circuit for low power energy harvesting sources will be reviewed in this paper. Fundamentals of the boost converter circuit startup problem are discussed and recent circuit solutions to solve this problem are compared and analyzed. Necessary design considerations and trade-offs regarding circuit topology, component and CMOS process are also addressed.
