Implantable device for processing neurological signals

摘要

An implantable device comprising a sensing unit, wherein the sensing unit is adapted to rectify biological/neurological signals in the form of sensed electrical signals from body tissue adjacent to the location of the implantable device. The sensing unit of the implantable device comprises at least one amplifier, wherein the supply current to the at least one amplifier is responsive to the magnitude of the sensed electrical signals provided to the at least one amplifier. The implantable device is further capable of integrating the rectified sensed electrical signals and generating output signals, wherein the output signals contain indicia of biopotential parameters of the body tissue.
