Abstract

A high-efficiency wireless communication circuit with energy harvesting function is presented to solve the problems in the wireless circuits in traditional implantable devices

such as high power consumption

large chip area

short communication distance and lack of ability to harvest energy. The proposed pulse amplitude modulation(PAM)based communication circuit consumes lower power and can reach a longer communication distance with the same bit error rate when compared with traditional on-off keying(OOK)modulation method. The energy harvesting circuit contains low-power voltage rectifier and regulator designed with MOS devices

which has the advantages of high efficiency and small chip area. The

proposed circuit is designed and simulated using a 0.35 μm CMOS technology. A test environment is also built to verify the proposed circuit. Simulation and measurement results show that the proposed circuit can operate under a power supply range of 2.0-2.8 V

and achieve a maximum communication distance of 12 cm with the working current lower than 26 μA and bit error rate less than 10

-5

. With a 800 mV and 128 kHz input

the energy harvesting circuit outputs a 1.73 V DC voltage with 20% energy conversion efficiency. The proposed circuit is suitable for implantable medical devices such as cardiac pacemakers.
