He has made significant contributions to the field of MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) technology, holding a total of 4 patents. His work focuses on enhancing the performance and efficiency of sensors and energy harvesting systems.
Latest Patents
Membretti's latest patents include innovative systems and methods aimed at stabilizing high-Q MEMS sensors. Various embodiments of this invention allow for the reduction of unwanted high-Q oscillations in capacitive MEMS sensors. In certain embodiments, stabilization is achieved through a dedicated ultra-low power circuit that provides a bias voltage to one or more sensor electrodes during an OFF-phase. This bias voltage forces a balance condition that eliminates perturbations, enabling smooth transitions and resulting in shorter sensor settling times. Another significant patent involves a system and method for efficiently harvesting environmental energy. In this invention, a transducer converts energy from an energy source into an electrical signal for storage. A switch is selectively actuated to transfer electrical energy from a first storage element to a second storage element, driven by sensing the electrical energy levels in the second storage element.
