|---|---|---|
This paper presents a single inductor energy harvesting and power management (EHM) unit for ultra-low power (ULP) systems. The proposed circuit harvests energy from solar cells from 0.38V input voltage (Vin) and provides 4 output voltages - storage at 5V and VDDs at 3.3V, 1.5V and 1.2V. A peak inductor current control scheme enables high efficiency operation across wide input and output voltage range. The IC supports maximum power point tracking, battery management, and cold starts from 0.38V Vin. |
