A 7.5-mV-Input Boost Converter for Thermal Energy Harvesting With 11-mV Self-Startup

A DC-DC boost converter for ultra-low-voltage thermal energy harvesting is presented herein. The focus of this brief is to provide both self-startup and efficient conversion at ultra-low input voltages. The converter startup is achieved through the use of a cold starter based on an ultra-low-voltage...
