RFID tag rectifiers with bias current reuse

Embodiments are directed to rectifiers using a single bias current or bias current path to bias multiple rectifying elements. A rectifier that has multiple rectifier stages coupled together serially includes a bias current path coupled to each of the rectifier stages. Thee bias current path is confi...

Zusammenfassung:Embodiments are directed to rectifiers using a single bias current or bias current path to bias multiple rectifying elements. A rectifier that has multiple rectifier stages coupled together serially includes a bias current path coupled to each of the rectifier stages. Thee bias current path is configured to simultaneously bias rectifying elements in each of the rectifier stages by using a bias current to bias a first rectifying element and reusing the bias current to bias other rectifying elements.
