Abstract [en]

Electromagnetic energy harvesting (EM) is an interesting method for obtaining energy from vibration sources to power autonomous wireless sensor systems. This is reached with the help of energy management circuits that can be based on voltage multipliers circuits or boost rectifier circuits. These energy management structures aim to raise the voltage of the EM converter to a level that is adequate for the storage element. In this paper, a dual-mode AC/DC circuit for EM is proposed for fast charging of the supercapacitor. The circuit is based on a boost rectifier and a voltage multiplier using discrete elements and without a startup circuit. This structure can work properly with an EM converter generating power in the range of a few µW. The circuit can work under different frequencies and accelerations. In the first step, the proposed circuit store the energy in a supercapacitor in voltage multiplier mode until it reaches 1.9 V. After that, the supercapacitor will supply the ancillary circuit to activate the boost mode based on bidirectional MOSFETs, which reduce the time to charge the supercapacitor. The maximum power consumption of the ancillary circuit is 34 µW. The experimental investigation shows that the system at acceleration ACC = 0.17 g and Freq = 27 Hz is able to charge the supercapacitor by a voltage of 5.41 V in 7 min. The proposed solution helps to enhance the time to charge comparing conventional voltage multiplier structure by 23 min.
