The switching regulator is utilized not only for load voltage regulation but also for impedance conversion to maximize the transfer efficiency.

An ultra-low frequency GIDL ring oscillator was designed and evaluated with the measurement results. As a result, ultra-low frequency oscillation from 0.94 to 5.1 Hz was successfully achieved. An extremely small circuit area was achieved because integrated resistors and capacitors were not used. From the power consumption analysis, a new low-power design was conducted from the viewpoints of “shortening the signal transition time of the buffer circuit” and “reducing the short-circuit current of the buffer circuit,” and ultra-low power operation of 71.6 pW was successfully achieved in circuit simulation.

To measure insulin resistance, a minimally invasive needle with measurement and administration flow channels for local glucose tolerance tests was fabricated. The administration flow channel has a hole on the tip end of the flow channel. The microperfusion flow channel starts from the root side of the needle, turns around at the needle-tip end, and returns back to the root side of the needle. It has a perforated membrane on the surface of the area placed in the skin when inserted. Glucose is administrated through the flow channel, and glucose concentration of the skin is measured by microperfusion before and after administration. When the perfusate is perfused into the microperfusion flow channel, since the glucose concentration of the skin is higher than the perfusate, glucose contained in the skin's interstitial fluid moves into the flow channel through the perforated membrane by concentration diffusion, and the glucose can be collected.

Instead of the large electromagnets used in our previous work, a permanent magnet was used to establish a static magnetic field. The design was based on the Halbach array, which allows the magnetic field to be concentrated on one side to increase the magnetic force. To avoid the problem of reducing the magnetic force of the magnets, the array magnets were optimized so that they could be composed of a combination of simple square prism magnets. Observation of the magnetic flux density of the fabricated permanent magnets showed that the magnetic flux density at the center was 0.946 T, and an error of less than 5 mT in magnetic flux density could be achieved. As a result, we succeeded in producing the permanent magnet. NMR measurements of water and air were performed using the produced magnets. When measuring water, a signal at 39.679 MHz was observed, which is the signal of hydrogen. In contrast, no signal was observed in air.
