| Abstract | Wireless microsensors can add energy- and life-saving intelligence to remote and inaccessible places like factories, hospitals and so on. For this, they normally house sensors, data converters, digital processors, memory, transmitters, and power supplies. Although some of these functions can demand milliwatts at a time, the events monitored are typically so sporadic and sparse in time that average consumption is in microwatts. Still, tiny batteries cannot supply power for long, so power supplies cannot afford to burn much power. This is why reducing the power that switched-inductor supplies lose when delivering microwatts is critical. For these power levels, balancing switches to deliver fixed energy packets in discontinuous-conduction mode and adjusting their frequency to modify power level is the most efficient means of managing a DC–DC converter. In other words, fixing the inductor's peak current and adjusting frequency is more efficient than fixing frequency and adjusting peak current. In fact, experimental measurements show that fixing peak current to 6 mA and adjusting frequency to supply up to 250 µW is 2–10% more efficient than fixing frequencies at 40, 80, and 120 kHz and 1.4–7% more efficient than fixing currents at 5 and 10 mA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
