Abstract :
A cardiac sense channel implemented in a programmable system on a chip including analog and digital blocks is presented. This architecture relies on switching capacitors and switch matrix to create analog circuits with different, programmable transfer functions, such as filters. Then, an ASIC using the same concept and specifically designed to use in low power, medical implantable devices is simulated. Simulations were carried out using 0.6 um technology parameters.
