Guest Editors’ Introduction: Circuits and Systems for VLSI IoT Devices

This special issue explores the challenges posed by the design of very-large-scale integration (VLSI) nodes for the Internet-of-Things (IoT) systems. These systems use wireless communication to link together physical devices into distributed real-time embedded systems. IoT systems are used in a wide range of applications, including industrial control, vehicles, smart grids, and medical and health care systems.
