Design of an inductor-less step-up ac/dc converter for 0.3 V@1 MHz vibration energy harvesting

For vibration energy harvesting, we propose an inductor-less step-up ac/dc converter in this paper. To realize the inductor-less design, the proposed ac/dc converter consists of two converter blocks: Cockcroft–Walton circuit and charge pump. Unlike existing ac/dc converters for vibration energy harv...
