Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few years neural recording and stimulation technology has advanced rapidly. As new implants and electrode devices are implemented and tested, a full system capable of effectively utilizing them within a medical application has remained unrealized. A mechanism that is able to wirelessly communicate with and control such instruments would drastically increase the ease with which they can be used in scenarios such as free-moving animal experiments, medical studies, and field trials. Certain constraints come with constructing such an end-to-end device, such as limits on power, cost, and size, along with stringent performance requirements on data rates and range. This thesis introduces a fully developed wireless neural recording system. Consisting of a multi-channel neural implant, a small microcontroller relay device, and a tablet running a control application, it is capable of recording and displaying neural data at high speed and long range. Communication between the three components is accomplished purely through wireless transmissions, utilizing inductive coils to transfer data through the patient's tissue along with an 802.11 WiFi to establish a link and facilitate transmission between the microcontroller and control software. The control software gives the researcher freedom to specify recording parameters such as the amount of data desired, sampling speed, recording channels, and format of the data to be sent from the implant. Upon data reception, the software processes the received data, creating a time series of neural points per channel that can be graphed, displayed, and downloaded. This modular and simple approach to an end-to-end wireless recording system will allow cutting edge neural implants to be quickly integrated into full solutions that can be used in neurological and biomedical research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT YIN, MING. A Multi-Channel Wireless Implantable Neural Recording System. (Under the direction of Dr. Maysam Ghovanloo). This dissertation presents a multi-channel implantable wireless neural recording (WINeR) system for electrophysiology and behavioral neuroscience research applications. This system consists of two units: a system-on-a-chip (SoC) transmitter unit and a receiver unit built with off-the-shelf components. A novelty of the WINeR system is in its utilization of a wireless single-slope ADC technique by inserting a wireless link in between a pulse width modulator and a time-to-digital converter (TDC). This technique not only offers the WINeR system the benefit of a single-slope ADC, but also makes the WINeR transmitter unit very simple, low power, and small in regards to chip area. In addition, by directly transmitting pulse width modulation (PWM) signal, the pulse rate over the wireless link is reduced to the sampling rate, while a moderate system resolution can still be achieved. Another novelty of this system is that its transmitter uses an asynchronous (clockless) topology and achieves very low noise levels by eliminating the on-chip clock. Some of the other features of this system are the wideband FSK demodulator and FPGA-based TDC in the receiver unit capable of achieving high resolution, low noise, low power, low cost, and ease of implementation. A 32-channel WINeR transmitter prototype is implemented in a standard CMOS technology, and operates in the 900MHz ISM band. A prototype WINeR receiver is also built using off-the-shelf components with up to 75MHz bandwidth. A custom developed VC++ GUI running on a PC interface with the receiver unit through a USB port and facilitates data storage and visualization. In addition, detailed noise analysis is conducted both theoretically and experimentally to further characterize the performance of the system. Finally, the full functionality of the entire WINeR system has been validated from bench-top.

Book excerpt: Understanding brain structure and principles of operation is one of the major challengesofmodernscience.SincetheexperimentsbyGalvanionfrogmuscle contraction in 1792, it is known that electrical impulses lie at the core of the brain activity. The technology of neuro-electronic interfacing, besides its importance for neurophysiological research, has also clinical potential, so called neuropr- thetics. Sensory prostheses are intended to feed sensory data into patient’s brain by means of neurostimulation. Cochlear prostheses [1] are one example of sensory prostheses that are already used in patients. Retinal prostheses are currently under research [2]. Recent neurophysiological experiments [3, 4] show that brain signals recorded from motor cortex carry information regarding the movement of subject’s limbs (Fig. 1.1). These signals can be further used to control ext- nal machines [4] that will replace missing limbs, opening the ?eld of motor prosthetics, devices that will restore lost limbs or limb control.

Download or read book Design and Implementation of a Multi channel Field programmable Analog Front end for a Neural Recording System written by Bahareh Ebrahimi Sadrabadi and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neural recording systems have attracted an increasing amount of attention in recent years, and researchers have put major efforts into designing and developing devices that can record and monitor neural activity. Understanding the functionality of neurons can be used to develop neuroprosthetics for restoring damages in the nervous system. An analog front-end block is one of the main components in such systems, by which the neuron signals are amplified and processed for further analysis. In this work, our goal is to design and implement a field-programmable 16-channel analog front-end block, where its programmability is used to deal with process variation in the chip. Each channel consists of a two-stage amplifier as well as a band-pass filter with digitally tunable low corner frequency. The 16 recording channels are designed using four different architectures. The first group of recording channels employs one low-noise amplifier (LNA) as the first-stage amplifier and a fully differential amplifier for the second stage along with an NMOS transistor in the feedback loop. In the second group of architectures, we use an LNA as the first stage and a single-ended amplifier for implementing the second stage. Groups three and four have the same design as groups one and two; however the NMOS transistor in the feedback loop is replaced by two PMOS transistors. In our design, the circuits are optimized for low noise and low power consumption. Simulations result in input-referred noise of 6.9 [mu]Vrms over 0.1 Hz to 1 GHz. Our experiments show the recording channel has a gain of 77.5 dB. The chip is fabricated in AMS 0.35 [mu]m CMOS technology for a total die area of 3 mmx3 mm and consumes 2.7 mW power from a 3.3 V supply. Moreover, the chip is tested on a PCB board that can be employed for in-vivo recording.
