Here we present a model that predicts the neural activity evoked by vibratory stimuli in the three types of mechanoreceptive fibers that innervate the glabrous skin of the hand. The model takes as input the position of the stimulus as a function of time, along with its first (velocity), second (acceleration) and third (jerk) derivatives. This input is filtered and passed through an integrate-and-fire mechanism to generate a train of spikes as output. By fitting the model to the activity of the three fiber types, we found that activity in each fiber type is best accounted for by specific stimulus combinations. The major conclusion of this study is that the timing of individual spikes evoked in mechanoreceptive fibers innervating the hand can be accurately predicted using an integrate-and-fire model. This model constitutes an important first step towards tactile neural prostheses.","PeriodicalId":415200,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130661656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the core of the circuit is a charge-pump based on CMOS floating-gate transistor diodes (FGTD) whose threshold voltage can be adjusted using indirect programming. We show that the diodes can achieve threshold voltages less than 50 mV, which is typically less than the conventional Schottky diodes fabricated in an equivalent process. A prototype of a 5-stage charge-pump is fabricated in a standard 0.5-mum CMOS process (Vth = 0.7 V and -0.9 V for nMOS and pMOS transistors respectively). Measurement results validate the functionality of the prototype for multiplying and regulating sub-threshold input signals. Using a 5-stage charge-pump we demonstrate operation at less than 300 mV input signal range with an operating frequency ranging from 1-4 MHz.","PeriodicalId":415200,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125348160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper deals with the diaphragmatic electromyogram (EMGdi) as a controller of mechanical ventilation. However, recorded EMGdi signals are always contaminated by electrocardiogram (ECG). Cancellation of the ECG contamination, especially in real-time, is not a simple operation because the spectra of EMG and ECG overlap. We present in this paper an EMGdi acquisition system implementing an efficient real-time EMG processing technique. This system includes an esophageal catheter and a control unit with Bluetooth link for communication with a user interface. The ECG cancellation part includes two 8-bit microcontrollers communicating via a SPI interface and receiving and sending data via two RS232 serial links and can be easily adapted to be used for any application which needs to eliminate ECG artifacts from EMG. The simulation and experimental results show that the chosen filtering technique gives good results on diaphragmatic EMG and can operate in a hardware system.","PeriodicalId":415200,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117285198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mismatch and noise reduction techniques developed for traditional imagers, like correlated double sampling (CDS), cannot be applied to this frame-free asynchronous vision sensor. In an dasiaoctopus retinapsila, each self timed pixel integrates photo current until a threshold is reached, whereupon it creates a pixel-event and is reset. To reduce threshold mismatch, 1/f and reset noise in this implementation, pixels are not reset to a common baseline but to a level that is relative to the individual firing threshold. This is achieved by subtracting a fixed charge from the integrating node. The matching of that charge is dependent on the matching of a carefully designed capacitor. Monte Carlo simulations of the pixel with manufacturer mismatch statistic parameters predicted a total pixel mismatch of only 0.26%. The physical implementation on a AMS 0.35 micro-meter ASIC with a resolution of 74 times 74 pixels achieved a mismatch of below 1%.","PeriodicalId":415200,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123714125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, surface EEnG is a weak signal (muV) sensitive to physiological interferences such as ECG and respiration. The goal of this work has been to develop a modular Laplacian sensor to enhance the quality of conventional bipolar recordings. This sensor is made up by two parts: the passive part which consist of 3 concentric Ag/AgCl ring electrodes; and the active part which is a battery-powered signal conditioning circuit. Each part is etched in a different printed circuit board (PCB), and they are connected to each other by SMT connectors. So that, the sensing part can be treated independently for its maintenance and replacement, while the active part can be reused. In a preliminary recording session, the slow wave (SW) component of the EEnG was identified in the signal provided by the Laplacian sensor. Moreover, this signal proved to be less affected by respiration and ECG interference.","PeriodicalId":415200,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference","volume":"89 8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126318484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
