  • Abstract
    We propose a single-chip ultralow-power sensor node processor with a synchronous media access control (MAC). It is comprised of a transceiver, i8051 micro processor, and dedicated MAC processor. The test chip occupies 3 × 3 mm2 in a 180-nm CMOS process, including 1.38 M transistors. The power is 58.0 µW under a network environment.
