It is essential that these systems achieve good power transmission efficiency, but also be compatible with microsystem technologies.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThis paper presents two schemes for implementing mm-scale coils for power delivery by electromagnetic coupling \u0026ndash; on-chip and wire-wound. This work develops the relevant analytical models, equivalent simulation models, and reports results using both finite element modeling (simulation) and experimental measurement of the fabricated devices. Finally, the paper authors compare results and discuss the relative merits of each approach.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference (BioCAS) serves as a premier international forum for presenting the interdisciplinary research and development activities at the crossroads of medicine, life sciences, physical sciences, and engineering that will shape tomorrow\u0026rsquo;s medical devices and healthcare systems. It brings together researchers, designers, clinicians, and engineers from industry, academia, and government to disseminate the latest cutting-edge research results and innovative solutions for today\u0026rsquo;s complex health problems at the frontiers of biomedical engineering, life sciences, and circuits and systems.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EECE Ph.D. student\u0026nbsp;Pyungwoo Yeon received the Third Place Best Paper Award at the IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference (BioCAS 2017), held October 19-21 in Turin, Italy.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"ECE Ph.D. student\u00a0Pyungwoo Yeon received the Third Place Best Paper Award at the IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference (BioCAS 2017), held October 19-21 in Turin, Italy.
