Popis: | A CMOS integrated frequency domain near infrared spectroscopy (fdNIRS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is designed for simultaneous brain stimulation and monitoring. The combination of optical sensing and electrical stimulation solves the incompatibility between EEG and tDCS in both time and spatial domains. A real-time closed-loop brain stimulation can be realized for neurological disorders treatment and cognitive performance enhancement. The dual-channel fdNIRS achieved a sub nW sensitivity when working with an APD with 40A/W responsivity and 1.77mm2 active area. Each fdNIRS channel provides 33dB dynamic range and up to 0.2° phase resolution with a power consumption of 30mW. Measurements on 2 milk and ink based liquid tissue phantoms successfully captured both the baseline information and dynamic change of absorption and reduced scattering coefficient. The on-chip 5-bit current stimulator can support a stimulating current between 0.6mA and 2.2mA with 1% accuracy, which meets the requirements of tDCS. The chip is fabricated in a standard 130nm CMOS process and occupies an area of 2.25mm2. |
