Collaborative Research: HIGH EFFICIENCY POWER DELIVERY AND FRONT-END MODULE DESIGN FOR IMPLANTABLE BIO-SENSORS

明尼苏达大学的I/UCRC先进微创诊断和治疗技术和亚利桑那州立大学的Connection One I/UCRC将在一个项目上进行合作，该项目的重点是为无电池植入式无源遥测传感器开发完全集成的高效电源稳压器和低噪声模拟前端电路。研究人员将在微电子和生物工程的各个领域进行合作，包括电磁学，基于MEMS的电感器和探针，模拟，混合信号IC设计和电力电子。这个合作项目将为研究人员、学生和公司成员提供更广泛的大学和行业经验。研究结果将帮助公司设计高效、可靠的电源，不需要电池的植入式设备，从而减少手术次数。

The I/UCRC for Advanced Technologies for Minimally Invasive Diagnosis and Treatment at the University of Minnesota and the Connection One I/UCRC at Arizona State will be collaborating on a project that focuses on fully integrated high efficiency power supply regulators and low noise analog front end circuits for battery-less implantable passive telemetry based sensors. The researchers will collaborate on diverse areas of microelectronics and bioengineering including electromagnetics, MEMS based inductors and probes, analog, mixed-signal IC design and power electronics.This collaborative project will provide a much broader university and industry experience for the researchers, students and company members. The research results will help companies design efficient, reliable power supplies that do not require batteries for implantable devices, thereby reducing the number of surgeries.
