Dual-output regulating rectifier is highly desired in wireless power transfer (WPT) for sub-100mW bioimplants. Such rectifiers perform voltage rectification and dual-output regulation simultaneously, thus avoiding post DC-DC conversions and cascaded power losses [1 –4]. However, the conventional dual-output structure suffers from a low voltage...

Reinforcement learning (RL) exhibits impressive performance when managing complicated control tasks for robots. However, its wide application to physical robots is limited by the absence of strong safety guarantees. To overcome this challenge, this paper explores the control Lyapunov barrier function (CLBF) to analyze the safety and reachability...

We present a ring-oscillator-based sub-sampling phase-locked loop (PLL) using a generator-based design flow. A hybrid loop with a delta-sigma ($\Delta \Sigma$) modulator is applied to reduce the loop filter (LF) area and the control ripple. The generator automatically produces the ring oscillator and PLL to meet the provided specifications. The...
