Abstract

A fully integrated wireless spread-spectrum sensor incorporating all element s of an "intelligent" sensor on a single circuit chip is capable of telemeteri ng data to a receiver. Synchronous control of all elements of the chip provides low-cost, low-noise, and highly robust data transmission, in turn enabling t he use of low-cost monolithic receivers.
