The recent proliferation of easy to use electronic components and toolkits has introduced a
large number of novices to designing and building electronic projects. Nevertheless, …

A battery design and fabrication process is demonstrated to make Lithium-ion (Li-ion)
microbatteries with high capacity to power IoT devices. The battery consists of printed anode and …

We present an 802.15.4 compatible transceiver that operates without any off-chip frequency
reference. With integrated Cortex-M0, the chip can also transmit BLE beacons with only …

Recently, there has been an increasing push to make everything wireless. In contrast to high-performance
cellular communication, where the demand for enormous quantities of data is …

A transceiver was designed and fabricated in 65 nm CMOS to verify the feasibility of using a
free running, on-chip LC tank as the local oscillator in an IEEE 802.15.4 transceiver. The …

In this work we propose and demonstrate a protocol for a time synchronized channel hopping
mesh network for wireless transceivers that use exclusively imprecise and inaccurate on-…

A low-power 2.2-2.4-GHz receiver front end for Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications is presented.
The front end consists of a capacitively cross-coupled common-gate low-noise amplifier …

We report the first time-synchronized protocol stack running on a crystal-free device. We use
an early prototype of the Single-Chip micro Mote, SCμM, a single-chip 2 × 3 mm 2 mote-on-a…

In this paper, we examine the use of beamforming techniques to interrogate a multitude of
neural implants in a distributed, ultrasound-based intra-cortical recording platform known as …

Optical receivers for autonomous microsystems provide benefits such as enabling contact-free
optical programming and low-power 3D optical localization. A small, low power optical …
