一种用于射频识别的超低功耗温度传感器

An ultra-low-power CMOS temperature sensor with analog-to-digital readout circuitry for RFID applications was implemented in a 0.18-μm CMOS process. To achieve ultra-low power consumption, an error model is proposed and the corresponding novel temperature sensor front-end with a new double-measure method is presented. Analog-to-digital conversion is accomplished by a sigma-delta converter. The complete system consumes only 26 μA @ 1.8 V for continuous operation and achieves an accuracy of ±0.65 °C from –20 to 120 °C after calibration at one temperature.

This paper presents an EPC Class 1 Generation 2 compatible tag with on-chip antenna implemented in the SMIC 0.18 μm standard CMOS process.The UHF tag chip includes an RF/analog front-end, a digital baseband, and a 640-bit EEPROM memory.The on-chip antenna is optimized based on a novel parasitic-aware model.The rectifier is optimized to achieve a power conversion efficiency up to 40% by applying a self-bias feedback and threshold compensation techniques.A good match between the tag circuits and the on-chip antenna is realized by adjusting the rectifier input impedance.Measurements show that the presented tag can achieve a communication range of 1 cm with 1 W reader output power using a 1 × 1 cm2 single-turn loop reader antenna.
