The sensor consisted of a planar spiral inductor connected to two capacitors forming a resonant circuit with two resonant frequencies. When a load was applied to one or both of the parallel plate capacitors, the distance between the plates of the capacitor was altered, thus shifting the observed resonant peaks. Testing illustrated that applied loading to a particular capacitor caused a significant shift in one of the resonant peaks and also a smaller shift in another resonant peak. This interdependence resulted from each capacitive element being connected to the same inductive spiral and was accounted for with a developed analysis algorithm. To validate the experimental observation, a circuit simulation was also generated to model the sensor behavior with changing force/displacement. The novelty of this system lies not only in its wireless passive nature, but also in the fact that a single LC sensor was fashioned to detect more than one point simultaneously.展开更多

The chip tag integrates a temperature sensor, an RF/analog front-end circuit, an NVM memory and a digital base- band in a standard CMOS process. The sensor with a low power sigma-delta (NA) ADC is designed to operate in low and high resolution modes. It can not only achieve the target accuracy but also reduce the power consumption and the sensing time. A CMOS-only RF rectifier and a single-poly non-volatile memory (NVM) are designed to realize a low cost tag chip. The 192-bit-NVM tag chip with an area of 1 mm2 is implemented in a 0.18-#m standard CMOS process. The sensitivity of the tag is -10.7 dBm/-8.4 dBm when the sensor is disabled/enabled. It achieves a maximum reading/sensing distance of 4 m/3.1 m at 2 W EIRR The inaccuracy of the sensor is -0.6 ℃/0.5 ℃ (-1.0 ℃/1.2 ℃) in the operating range from 5 to 15 ℃ in high resolution mode (-30 to 50 ℃ in low resolution mode). The resolution of the sensor achieves 0.02 ℃ (0.18 ℃) in high (low) resolution mode.展开更多
