Two self-powered energy harvesting interfaces based on the optimized synchronous electric charge extraction technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
Optimized synchronous electric charge extraction (OSECE) interface is a load weakly-dependant circuit, which is a favorable characteristic for piezoelectric wideband vibration energy harvesting. However, it introduces synchronous switches that need to be selfpowered in a stand-alone system. This paper presents the design and experimental testing of two self-powered approaches for the OSECE technique. One is made of electronic switches driven by analog peak detector circuits; the other uses mechanical switches directly controlled by the ambient vibrations. Finally, advantages and drawbacks of the two approaches will be compared and discussed.
