摘要: The present description concerns a derivative measurement circuit. The circuit implements successive cycles, each corresponding to a succession of first, second, and third periods of a clock signal. At each first period, an input voltage is memorized on a first capacitive element and the circuit delivers a voltage indicating a difference between a voltage on a second capacitive element and a voltage on a third capacitive element. At each second period, the input voltage is memorized on the second capacitive element and the circuit delivers a voltage indicating a difference between a voltage on the first capacitive element and the voltage on the third capacitive element. At each third period, the input voltage is memorized on the third capacitive element and the circuit delivers a voltage indicating a difference between the voltage on the second capacitive element and the voltage on the first capacitive element.

摘要: A system comprises a first comparator, a second comparator, a pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller, and a ramp generator. The first comparator has a positive input coupled to a first ramp output of the ramp generator and a negative input configured to receive an input voltage. The second comparator has a positive input configured to receive the input voltage and a negative input coupled to a second ramp output of the ramp generator. The PWM controller is coupled to outputs and control signal inputs of the first and second comparators and has a control output. In some implementations, the ramp generator generates a high-side falling ramp for the first comparator and a low-side rising ramp for the second comparator. In some implementations, the ramp generator includes a first ramp generator for the high-side falling ramp and a second ramp for the low-side rising ramp.

摘要: A multiple output current stimulator circuit with fast turn on time is described. At least one pair of input side and output side transistors is arranged in a current mirror connected to a supply transistor by cascode coupling. The output side transistor supplies stimulation current to an electrode in contact with tissue. An operational amplifier connected to a reference voltage and to the output side transistor drives the supply transistor to maintain the voltage at the output side transistor equal to the reference voltage. The at least one pair of transistors includes multiple pairs of transistors whose output side transistors drive respective electrodes with stimulation currents. The stimulator determines the initiation and duration of stimulation current pulses supplied to each electrode. At circuit activation, large currents are generated which discharge capacitances in the output side transistors causing rapid output side transistor turn on.

摘要: A width of a voltage pulse signal is directly proportional to a difference between first and second resistances in a pulse generator. The voltage pulse signal is generated with a ramp signal, two reference voltages, and two comparators. The first reference voltage is generated with the first resistance and a first current, and the second reference voltage is generated with the second resistance and a second current. The first comparator produces a first comparator output in response to the first reference voltage and the ramp signal, and the second comparator produces a second comparator output in response to the second reference voltage and the ramp signal. A logic circuitry generates the voltage pulse signal in response to the two comparator outputs.
