This paper presents a fully integrated CMOS Operational Floating Current Conveyor (OFCC) circuit. The proposed circuit is designed for instrumentation amplifier circuits. The CMOS OFCC circuit is designed and simulated using Cadence in TSMC 90 m technology kit. The circuit aims at two different design goals. The first goal is to design a low power consumption circuit (LBW design) while the second is to design a high bandwidth circuit (HBW design). The total power consumption of the LBW design is 1.26 mW with 30 MHz bandwidth while the power consumption of the HBW design is 3 mW with 104.6 MHz bandwidth.

Ultrasonic power transfer (UPT) is a promising method for wireless power transfer technology for low-power medical applications. Most portable or wearable medical devices are battery-powered. Batteries cannot be used for a long time and require periodic charging or replacement. UPT is a candidate technology for solving this problem. In this work, a 40-KHz ultrasound transducer was used to design a new prototype for supplying power to a wearable heart rate sensor for medical application. The implemented system consists of a power unit and heart rate measurement unit. The power unit includes an ultrasonic transmitter and receiver, rectifier, boost converter and super-capacitors. The heart rate measurement unit comprises measurement and monitoring circuits. UPT-based transfer power and efficiency were achieved using 1-, 4- and 8-Farad (F) super-capacitors. At 4 F, the system achieved 69.4% transfer efficiency and 0.318 mW power at 4 cm. In addition, 97% heart rate measurement accuracy was achieved relative to the benchmark device. The heart rate measurements were validated with statistical analysis. Our results show that this work outperforms previous works in terms of transfer power and efficiency with a 4-cm gap between the ultrasound transmitter and receiver.

This paper design a portable ECG monitor based on mobile phone. Using the single-lead heart rate monitor analog front-end of AD8232 chip produced by ADI co. Ltd., the monitor can measure human ECG signal and heart rate with only two electrode pads placed on chest, and display the ECG signal on the mobile phone via Bluetooth communication in real time. It also can simply measure the heart rate by touching the two electrodes of the monitor directly. The system has many functions like ECG signal analysis, heart rate counting, arrhythmia detection, signal playback, leads off detection, fast recovery ECG. The result shows that the portable ECG monitor is low cost, low power consumption, small size and easy to carry, etc.

It is necessary to develop a high homogeneous, low power consumption, high frequency and small-size shim coil for high precision and low-cost atomic spin gyroscope (ASG). To provide the shim coil, a multi-objective optimization design method is proposed. All structural parameters including the wire diameter are optimized. In addition to the homogeneity, the size of optimized coil, especially the axial position and winding number, is restricted to develop the small-size shim coil with low power consumption. The 0-1 linear programming is adopted in the optimal model to conveniently describe winding distributions. The branch and bound algorithm is used to solve this model. Theoretical optimization results show that the homogeneity of the optimized shim coil is several orders of magnitudes better than the same-size solenoid. A simulation experiment is also conducted. Experimental results show that optimization results are verified, and power consumption of the optimized coil is about half of the solenoid when providing the same uniform magnetic field. This indicates that the proposed optimal method is feasible to develop shim coil for ASG.
