A Three-Level Dual-Path Hybrid Buck Converter With Mitigated Capacitive Current and Seamless DVS Across a Wide Output Voltage Range

A Three-Level Dual-Path Hybrid Buck Converter With Mitigated Capacitive Current and Seamless DVS Across a Wide Output Voltage Range 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a three-level dual-path (TLDP) buck converter tailored for mobile application processors (APs) with a 1.8-V input and 0.4–1.5-V output range. Conventional buck (CB) and multi-level buck (MLB) converters suffer from prohibitive DC resistance ( $R_{\mathrm {DCR}}$ ) losses in compact inductors as load current increases. Although various multi-path …

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 …
