Sub-μA Always-on Drive Loop for 3-Axis MEMS Gyroscope

Sub-μA Always-on Drive Loop for 3-Axis MEMS Gyroscope 150 150

Abstract:

The always-on drive loop with low power is a key enabler for intelligent inertial measurement unit (IMU). One of the key design challenges of the always-on drive loop is the trade-off between the always-on power consumption and the wake-up time. To meet this challenge, the burst-mode always-on drive loop composed …

A 0.8-μm 32-Mpixel Always-On CMOS Image Sensor With Windmill-Pattern Edge Extraction and On-Chip DNN

A 0.8-μm 32-Mpixel Always-On CMOS Image Sensor With Windmill-Pattern Edge Extraction and On-Chip DNN 150 150

Abstract:

This letter presents a CMOS image sensor (CIS) that integrates two operation modes: 1) a high-resolution viewing mode with $0.8~\mu $ m 32 Mpixels and 2) a low-power always-on object recognition mode consuming 2.67 mW at 10 frames/s. The CIS features a unique windmill-pattern analog edge extraction circuit that is resilient to illumination variations. An …
