Abstract :
This paper describes a high efficiency rectifier circuit for passive UHF radio frequency identification (RFID) applications. The simulation and measurement show efficiency of 30.7% and 15% at low input power level respectively. The rectifier was fabricated in a standard 0.18um CMOS process and its core circuit occupied 0.169×0.137 mm2 silicon area.
