A Miniaturized Mote for Wireless Sensor Networks

A miniaturized wireless sensor network mote was developed. The miniaturized mote has characteristics including low-power consumption, small size, and flexibility. It operates at 32 MHz clock frequency and 3 V power supply, consuming approximately 200 muW in idle state and approximately 97 mW in active state . The size of the mote was 31 x 17 mm
