An implantable multielectrode array with on-chip signal processing
Abstract
This active probe can be used for the long-term recording of extracellular neural biopotentials and as a basis for closed-loop neural prostheses. The probe incorporates on-chip circuitry for amplifying, multiplexing, and buffering neural signals recorded from ten recording electrodes spaced 100-/spl mu/m apart. It requires only three leads and operates from a single 5-V supply. On-chip self-test circuitry for testing electrode impedance levels is provided. The on-chip circuitry is fabricated in a die area of 1.3 mm/SUP 2/ using 6-/spl mu/m LOCOS enhancement-depletion NMOS technology, and dissipates 5 mW of power. The probe is 4.7 mm long and 15 /spl mu/m thick, and has a shank which tapers from 160 /spl mu/m near the base to less than 15 /spl mu/m near the tip.

Silicon-based microdevices have the advantage of monolithic integration of electronic circuits for recording and signal processing.
“One advantage of siliconbased microdevices is the ability of monolithic integration of electronic circuits for recording and signal processing (Najafi and Wise, 1986; Ji et al., 1990)”

The most common front-end amplifier for IC neural recordings was first proposed by Najafi and Wise and later refined by Harrison to its present circuit.
“The most common front-end amplifier for IC neural recordings was first proposed by Najafi and Wise [89] and then further refined by Harrison [52] to its present circuit shown in Fig. 4.”

CNS-based neuroprostheses, or brain-machine interfaces, decode neural electrical activity to control robotic limbs or to stimulate muscles for restoring limb function.
“CNS-based neuroprostheses, or brain–machine interfaces (BMIs), are systems whereby neural electrical activities are decoded and used to control robotic limbs [76, 89, 105] or to stimulate muscles for restoring limb function [35].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
