Summary:
Neuromorphic engineering, which reconstructs the structure of neural system and exploits its applications on CMOS integrated circuits, presents various developments. This study is about the interface technology that adapts CMOS integrated circuits to neural system. Existing neural stimulators are designed to accurately transmit signals and to stimulate the nerves accurately, but they are difficult to embed into brain due to the limitation of their size and the power. One solution is to reduce the circuit area and power consumption at the expense of certain precision. This paper proposes CMOS neural stimulating circuits with low power consumption and small area.
