An energy management IC for bio-implants using ultracapacitors for energy storage
We present the first known energy management IC to allow low-power systems, such as biomedical implants, to optimally use ultracapacitors instead of batteries as their chief energy storage elements. The IC, fabricated in a 0.18 μm CMOS process, consists of a switched-capacitor DC-DC converter, a 4 n...
