Design of Wireless Autonomous Dataloggers IC's reveals the state of
the art in the design of complex dataloggers, with a special focus on
low power consumption. The emphasis is on autonomous dataloggers for
stand-alone applications with remote reprogrammability.
The book starts with a comprehensive introduction on the most important
design aspects and trade-offs for miniaturized low-power telemetric
dataloggers. After the general introduction follows an in-depth case
study of an autonomous CMOS datalogger IC for the registration of in
vivo loads on oral implants. After tackling the design of the datalogger
on the system level, the design of the different building blocks is
elaborated in detail, with emphasis on low power.
A clear overview of the operation, the implementation, and the most
important design considerations of the building blocks to achieve
optimal system performance is given. Design of Wireless Autonomous
Dataloggers IC's discusses the design of correlated double sampling
amplifiers and sample-and-holds, binary-weighted current steering DACs,
successive approximation ADCs and relaxation clock oscillators and can
also be used as a manual for the design of these building blocks.
Design of Wireless Autonomous Dataloggers IC's covers the complete
design flow of low-power miniaturized autonomous dataloggers with a
bi-directional wireless link and on-board data processing, while
providing detailed insight into the most critical design issues of the
different building blocks. It will allow you to design complex
dataloggers faster. It is essential reading for analog design engineers
and researchers in the field of miniaturized dataloggers and is also
suitable as a text for an advanced course on the subject.
