Design and Simulation of a Low Frequency Electrostatic Comb-drive Energy Harvester Using 0.35μm CMOS Technology

This project is to design, model and simulate an electrostatic comb-drive energy harvester. The device harvests the vibration energy from outside source and converts it into electric energy to supply wireless node sensors. Simulation is conducted using the CoventorWare software to simulate and optim...

Description
Summary:This project is to design, model and simulate an electrostatic comb-drive energy harvester. The device harvests the vibration energy from outside source and converts it into electric energy to supply wireless node sensors. Simulation is conducted using the CoventorWare software to simulate and optimize the device. CoventorWare simulation result has obtained a resonant frequency of 5 KHz.
