Variability-aware ultra low-power embedded memory for bio-implantable systems-on-chip

随着集成电路(IC)技术的进步，许多电子设备现在被植入人体内，以治疗危及生命的疾病。这类设备的范围从植入型心律转复除颤器(ICD)和起搏器到植入的用于控制神经功能障碍、糖尿病甚至体重的设备。“生物可植入系统片上系统的变异性感知超低功耗嵌入式存储器”主要是指为这些植入式医疗设备设计和实现健壮的低功耗片上存储器。通过使用通常使用静态随机存取存储器(SRAM)实现的大容量片上存储器，可以使这些设备在处理诊断数据和提供所需治疗方面更加通用。

With the advancement of integrated circuits (IC) technology, many electronic devices are now implanted inside the human body in order to treat life-threatening diseases. Such devices range from implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and pace makers to the devices implanted for controlling neurological dysfunctions, diabetes, and even body weight. "Variability-aware Ultra Low-power Embedded Memory for Bio-implantable Systems-On-Chip" primarily refers to the design and implementation of robust low-power on-chip memories for these implantable medical devices. By using a large capacity on-chip memory, which is typically realized using static random access memory (SRAM), these devices can be made more versatile in terms of processing the diagnostic data and providing the required therapy.
