Abstract
An extreme low power energy rectification, storage and management circuitry has been developed and used to power a small digital wireless sensor with a piezoelectric non-linear bi-stable vibration energy harvester for automotive application. All the system has been designed with off-the-shelf components and sends data in the 2.4 GHz band.
