Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of wearable equipment energy supply, and particularly discloses an energy acquisition circuit for wearable equipment and a power management circuit thereof. An auxiliary charge pump is introduced into each stage of charge pump in the energy acquisition circuit; the auxiliary charge pump adopts a charge transmission switch structure and is used for generating threshold compensation voltage based on electromagnetic waves and controlling grids provided for main rectification switches in the main rectification charge pump through a clamping tube so as to reduce the threshold voltage of the main rectification charge pump; the power supply management circuit comprises a sub-threshold bias generation circuit which is used for starting and generating reference voltage VREF irrelevant to VCC and environment temperature based on VCC. The LDO circuit based on the sub-threshold amplifier performs filtering of ripple waves for VCC based on VREF in a sub-thresholdstate, and secondary power supply voltage VDD is obtained. The circuit is high in energy conversion efficiency, low in manufacturing cost, suitable for various electromagnetic wave energy environmentsand high in practicability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of energy supply for wearable devices, and more particularly relates to an energy acquisition circuit and a power management circuit for wearable devices. Background technique [0002] At present, major manufacturers at home and abroad are scrambling to launch wearable devices. These wearable devices have multiple functions, such as basic medical functions such as monitoring heart rate / blood pressure, and have established a basic medical large database for health guidance. However, with the increasing requirements for data capacity, real-time performance, and security, it is difficult to reduce the power consumption of wireless transceivers based on phase-locked loop structures, and the service life of wearable and implantable medical devices is required to be maintained at more than 10 years , wearable devices face the problem of limited battery capacity. Secondly, the conversion efficiency PCE (Power Conversion Eff...
