Title
A Sub-nW Multi-stage Temperature Compensated Timer for Ultra-Low-Power Sensor Nodes.
Abstract
Accurate measurement of synchronization cycle time is required for ultra-low power wireless sensor nodes with stringent power budgets. A multi-stage gate-leakage-based timer with boosted charging is proposed to address the high jitter of prior-art gate-leakage-based timers. The key approaches are faster load capacitor charging, wider voltage swing, and an improved gain sensing inverter. The propos...
