摘要：

Low-grade exhaust heat is used to provide a reliable and independent power source for instrumentation circuitry by means of a thermoelectric generator (TEG), A design of a self-starting dc-dc converter is developed and optimized for very-low-input voltages (below 300 mV) in order to allow operation at temperature differences of 20 degrees C and less, A prototype is built, and the results are experimentally verified.
