Abstract :
A dedicated low power CMOS tranponder microchip is presented as part of a novel telemetry implant for biomedical applications. This mixed analog-digital circuit contains an identification code and collects information on physiological parameters, i.e. body temperature and physical activity. Emphasis is on a high degree of flexibility towards sensor inputs and internal data management, extreme miniaturization and low power consumption to allow implantation.
