Fabrication of CMOS Custom LSI for Implantable Biotelemeter

바이오 텔레메-터용 CMOS Custom LSI 제작

This paper presents a design of an optimized implantable biotelemetry system and the fabrication of custom CMOS LSI for implementing this system. The internal circuits of this system are fabricated on a single silicon chip with a size of $4{\times}5mm^2$. This LSI is designed and fabricated not only to get as small size and low power dissipation as possible, but also to have multiple function. Its main functions are to select one of implanted sensors and to accomplish ON - OFF power switching of an implanted battery by receiving appropriate Command signals and control signals fran external circuits. The internal system which was assembled on a bread-board using fabricated LSI chip is confirmed to work as designed. The total power dissipation of this interal system was $10.12{\mu}W$.
