Abstract |
 |
|
| |
| We have also fabricated a 16-channel electrophysiological interface chip in the same process for selective acquisition and digitization of any modality of neural signal. Each channel features a fixed gain bandpass amplifier with a tunable frequency response which allows isolation of the signal of interest, spikes, local field potentials (LFPs), electrocorticograms (ECoG), or electroencephalograms (EEG), without hardware modification and a programmable gain/resolution analog to digital converter (ADC). The bandpass amplifier analog front end has an input referred noise of 1.94 μVrms for a bandwidth of 8.2 kHz while drawing 12.2 μA of current from a 3.3 V supply. |
