    Ultra-low power design strategy for two-stage amplifier topologies

    , Electronics Letters, Vol: 50, Pages: 583-585, ISSN: 0013-5194

    A novel two-stage amplifier topology and ultra-low power design strategy for two-stage amplifiers that utilises pole zero cancellation to address the additional power requirements for stability are presented. For a 288 nA total bias, the presented amplifier achieves a 1.07 MHz unity gain frequency with a 8560 pF MHz/mA figure of merit.

    A Charge-Metering Method for Voltage-Mode Neural Stimulation

    , Journal of Neuroscience Methods, Vol: 224, Pages: 39-47, ISSN: 0165-0270

    Electrical Neural Stimulation is the technique used to modulate neural activity by inducing an instantaneous charge imbalance. This is typically achieved by injecting a constant current and controlling the stimulation time. However, constant voltage stimulation is found to be more energy-efficient although it is challenging to control the amount of charge delivered. This paper presents a novel, fully-integrated circuit for facilitating charge-metering in constant voltage stimulation. It utilises two complementary stimulation paths. Each path includes a small capacitor, a comparator and a counter. They form a mixed-signal integrator that integrates the stimulation current onto the capacitor whilst monitoring its voltage against a threshold using the comparator. The pulses from the comparator are used to increment the counter and reset the capacitor. Therefore, by knowing the value of the capacitor, threshold voltage and output of the counter, the quantity of charge delivered can be calculated. The system has been fabricated in 0.18μm CMOS technology, occupying a total active area of 339μm×110μm. Experimental results were taken using: (1) a resistor-capacitor EEI model and (2) platinum electrodes with ringer solution. The viability of this method in recruiting action potentials has been demonstrated using a cuff electrode with Xenopus Sciatic nerve. For a 10nC target charge delivery, the results of (2) show a charge delivery error of 3.4% and a typical residual charge of 77.19pC without passive charge recycling. The total power consumption is 45μW. The performance is comparable with other publications. Therefore, the proposed stimulation method can be used as a new approach for neural stimulation.

    Realtime ECG Baseline Removal: An Isoelectric Point Estimation Approach

    , IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems (BioCAS) Conference, Pages: 29-32

    This paper presents a novel method for ECG baseline drift removal while preserving the integrity of the ST segment. Baseline estimation is achieved by tracking 3 isoelectric points within the ECG waveform as fiducial markers used in an interpolation filter. These points are determined relative to the QRS complex, which is extracted using a known method (Pan-Tompkins algorithm). The proposed algorithm has been tested extensively using synthetic signals and also validated with real data. The synthetic signals assume a 2mV p-p ECG signal and 300uV p-p baseline drift in the presence of noise artefacts including EMG pickup (20 dB – max. 200uV), and residual power-line interference (50uV p-p). The results show a maximum (worst-case ST-segment distortion) error of 34.7uV (mean), 27.8uV (median) and 21.2uV (std. dev.) across 50 randomly generated synthetic ECG signals each containing 100 heartbeats. Validation of the algorithm applied to signals from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia databases reveals maximum error per P-T intervalwith mean, median and std. dev. of 34.4uV, 35.2uV and 9.6uV respectively with suppressed motion artefacts.

    Towards ultra-low power bio-inspired processing

    , Body Sensor Networks, Publisher: Springer London, Pages: 273-299, ISBN: 9781447163732

    The natural world is analogue and yet the modern microelectronic world with which we interact represents real world data using discrete quantities manipulated by logic. In the human space, we are entering a new wave of body-worn biosensor technology for medical diagnostics and therapy. This new trend is beginning to see the processing interface move back to using continuous quantities, which are more or less in line with the biological processes. We label this computational paradigm “bio-inspired” because of the ability of silicon chip technology which enables the use of inherent device physics, allowing us to approach the computational efficiencies of biology. From a conceptual viewpoint, this has led to a number of more specific morphologies including neuromorphic and retinomorphic processing. These have led scientists to model biological systems such as the cochlea and retina and gain not only superior computational resource efficiency (to conventional hearing aid or camera technology), but also an increased understanding of biological and neurological processes.
