Abstract
The paper presents a novel ultra low power UWB
transmitter system for near field communication in transcutaneous biotelemetries. The system utilizes an all-digital architecture based on minising the energy dissipated per bit transmitted by efficiently encoding a packet of pulses with multiple bits and utilizing oscillator referenced delays. This is achieved by introducing a novel bi-phasic 1.65 pJ per pulse UWB pulse generator together with a 72uμW DCO that provide a transmission bandwidth of 77.5 Mb/s with an energy efficiency of 890fJ per bit from a 1.2V supply. The circuit core occupies a compact silicon footprint of 0.026mm2 in a 0.18 μm CMOS technology.
