A 40.68-MHz Dual-Output Wireless Power Transfer System for Millimeter-Scale Biomedical Implants

A 40.68-MHz Dual-Output Wireless Power Transfer System for Millimeter-Scale Biomedical Implants 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a single-link, dual-output wireless power transfer (WPT) system operating at 40.68 MHz for miniature, high-power biomedical implants. The elevated carrier frequency enables a millimeter-scale receiver (RX) coil while maintaining link efficiency and output power comparable to low-frequency WPT designs. End-to-end (E2E) efficiency is optimized through global power …

A 40.68-MHz, 200-ns-Settling Active Rectifier for mm-Sized Implants

A 40.68-MHz, 200-ns-Settling Active Rectifier for mm-Sized Implants 150 150

Abstract:

This letter describes a fast-settling active rectifier for a 40.68 MHz wireless power transfer receiver for implantable applications. Fast-settling and low power are achieved through a novel direct voltage-domain compensation technique. The rectifier maintains high efficiency during load and link variations required for downlink communication. The system was fabricated in 40nm …
