Presents the design of an integrated neurostimulator, offering to surgeons the facilities to recognize nervous anatomy according to the muscular response obtained, as well as the identification of possible lesions. The system has been implemented with level and duration programmable current sources, offering large range of possibilities. The authors a describe the circuit specification, the architecture of the ASIC designed in a 2 mu m CMOS technology, and present characterization of the prototypes, manufactured by ES2. > |
