    Abstract: Disclosed a passive wireless sensor for detecting discrete droplets and bubbles. A first inductor channel and a second inductor channel are disposed opposite each other to form a capacitor channel, the first inductor channel is connected to the second inductor channel to form a resonant circuit. When a detection object passes through the detection channel, the permittivity between the first inductor channel and the second inductor channel changes and consequently a capacitance value of the capacitor channel changes, thus resulting in a change in resonant frequency of the resonant circuit. A readout device is used to read the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit and perform detection according to the resonant frequency to obtain information of a corresponding detection object.

  • Patent number: 11290009
    Abstract: A high energy efficiency switched-capacitor power converter includes the transmission gates T1-T7, the capacitors C1-C4, the load capacitor CL, and resistors, PMOS tubes and NMOS tubes. The power converter converts a stable input voltage of 3V into an output voltage of 1V by means of charge transfer. In the state of timing sequence 1, the on-chip capacitor C1, the capacitor C2 and the load capacitor CL are charged in series. In the state of timing sequence 2, the capacitor C1 and the capacitor C2 are connected in parallel to the capacitor CL to supplement the charge loss due to load for the capacitor CL. When the establishment is completed, the voltages across the capacitor C1, the capacitor C2, and the capacitor CL are basically the same. At this time, the voltage drop across the switch tube approximates 0 V during the charge transfer process.
