Increasing integrated circuit functionality and decreasing layout area over the past few decades has made power efficiency one of the most important requirements in all applications of electronic circuitry. Energy harvesting systems continue to address the increasingly apparent gap between silicon performance and battery energy density by providing an external source of power to a system. The focus of this paper will be the use of piezoelectric energy harvesting, which is the harvesting of vibrational power through piezoelectric ceramics. Piezoelectric ceramics have an inherent crystalline structure which allows them to transform the energy from a mechanical strain into electrical charge. This characteristic allows them to absorb the mechanical energy from their surroundings and transform it into electrical energy that has the potential to drive an electrical circuit. Specifically, this work strives to quantify the accelerations found in industrial and office settings and examine whether these vibrations are realistically applicable to be used in an actual circuit. This project complements another project, which examines the use of solar cells to power a low-power e-ink paper sensor circuit and focuses on attempting to see if there is a vibrational power source that could be used where the solar cells cannot harness enough power.
