All electronics require a voltage to operate and consume current when doing so. The stability of this
supply voltage has a significant impact on the accuracy and the robustness of the electronic circuits
being supplied by it.
For battery powered applications, the power consumption of the electronics is critical as it determines
the battery operated life time. To improve life time, there is a strong drive to lower regulated voltages
and lower current consumption. The goal of this project would be to investigate and implement a low
power supply system, consisting of different blocks. Depending on the time, the scope can be limited
to a signal regulator or be as wide as bandgap, regulator and power on reset (POR) implementation

</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold">
Design, simulation and implementation of a supply system for a new generation of Low Voltage and
low current consumption products.
Start from architectural study, through Concept/Analog Design and Mixed-Signal Simulation, to end
up at an actual Design & Layout Implementation, coached by an experienced Analog Designer.
