Abstract: Two types of CMOS rectifier circuits for UHF RFIDs have been proposed. Large power conversion efficiency (PCE) has been achieved by Vth cancellation techniques. In the Self-Vth-Cancellation ...

The basic characteristics of rectifier circuits were determined by O.H. Schade back in 1943, as documented in his classic article, Analysis of Rectifier Operation (Proc. IRE, Vol. 31, No. 7, July ...

Using the same structure and referencingit to the 0V rail can produce anegative bias. Note that positive andnegative boost rails can operate at thesame time. Figure 3 shows a modifiedversion of the ...

Single phase rectifiers with a dc side smoothing capacitor produce a line current rich in odd harmonics. In this paper an investigation for different line current compensation techniques applied to AC ...

Left panel, superconducting rectifier circuit used to convert AC currents into DC using four superconducting diodes (blue) connected by superconducting interconnects and one smoothing capacitor (C ...
