Abstract

In this paper, an analog front-end (AFE) local-field potential (LFP) acquisition unit with real-time stimulation artifact removal is proposed and verified for closed-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS) applications. The proposed acquisition unit is called the synchronized sample-and-hold stimulation artifact blanking (SSAB) AFE LFP acquisition unit. Both right-leg-driven (RLD) circuit and monopolar electrode-tissue impedance (ETI) measurement circuit associated with the AFE amplifier are also proposed. During closed-loop stimulations, the artifact removal is realized through the SSAB-IPC by blanking the AR-CCIA with a clock synchronized to the stimulation-enable signal and holding the amplifier at its state before stimulation through a sample-and-hold operation. After stimulation, the acquisition unit can quickly recover from the holding state back to the LFP recording state to reduce the discontinuity in LFP recording. The proposed acquisition unit was fabricated in 0.18-$\mu {\mathrm{ m}}$CMOS technology. With the RLD circuit, the measured CMRR is 124– 145 dB in the signal bandwidth. The fabricated monopolar ETI measurement circuit has a measurement error less than 8.3% with an extra power consumption of$2.65 \mu \text{W}$. The experimental results have shown that the proposed SSAB AFE LFP acquisition unit is feasible for the integration of SoCs in real-time closed-loop DBS systems for various applications.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Digital processing techniques such as reconstruction of the biopotentials use interpolation methods that can be applied in parallel to signal blanking to fill in the blocking phases of the synchronised sample-and-hold process.

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.
