The active electrodes are connected to a hub that sends the data to the external equipment. Since the amplification and filtering should be programmable according to the patient and environment, the communication between the active electrodes and the external equipment (via hub) must be bidirectional. This paper describes the hub and its communication to the active electrodes using the I2C Protocol. The project was developed using the Verilog and tested on boards that emulated the hub and the active electrodes.

However, in the highspeed mode configuration, the circuit operates in strong inversion (i.e. above threshold) regime, hence, its bulk connection of the PMOS load transistor is connected to its source. We have designed a 3-input XOR gate using the standard CMOS, STSCL, SCL, and cSCl using a 65 nm CMOS technology.
