Abstract :
Simultaneous stimulation and sensing of neurochemicals and electrophysiological field potentials is very useful in studying the brain activity. The aim of the paper is to design a prototype circuit board that can be used in in-vitro experiments, and provide medical researchers with capability to simultaneously stimulate brain activity and to sense the reaction as a function of the applied stimulation. This paper will consist of design of a printed circuit board for stimulation (current sources) and sensors (current measurement) using discrete components, such as operational amplifiers.
