Low-power Power Management Circuit Design for Small Scale Energy Harvesting Using Piezoelectric Cantilevers

The batteries used to power wireless sensor nodes have become a major roadblock for the wide deployment. Harvesting energy from mechanical vibrations using piezoelectric cantilevers provides possible means to recharge the batteries or eliminate them. Raw power harvested from ambient sources should b...
