| Description | This project has produced many solutions at the circuit design level, for systems that operate under limited power, including energy harvesting systems and systems with constrained battery lives. There has been better understanding in the way how memristors can be used as non-volatile storage in battery-less computing systems. |
| Exploitation Route | These findings can help building autonomous electronics and sensors |

| Title | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR VOLTAGE SENSING |
| Description | A voltage measuring apparatus for use in an energy harvesting system is disclosed. The apparatus includes a capacitor (6) adapted to be charged by means of a voltage to be measured, and an asynchronous digital counter (12) having power supply terminals adapted to be selectively connected to the capacitor during discharge of the capacitor and to provide a digital output signal dependent upon the voltage level of the capacitor the start of discharging of the capacitor. |
