  • Abstract
    This paper describes low-power DSP architecture for use in cochlear implants. The microsystem, fabricated in TSMC 0.18mum CMOS, consumes 1.79mW from a 1.2V supply and occupies an area of 9.18mm2 while providing the necessary programmability for high speech comprehension by patients. Standby power consumption is 330muW
