چکیده
A CMOS-based MEA with 4225 recording sites and 1024 stimulation sites is used to achieve high spatiotemporal resolution in in-vitro neural tissue interfacing experiments. Active area is 1 mm × 1 mm or 2 mm × 2 mm, respectively. A thin high-k dielectric serves as sensor interface between solid-state chip and biology.

A Multichannel Recording Frontend for MEA
Glass-substrate Multi-electrode Arrays (MEAs) have become a valuable tool in neurophysiological research and drug screening. A typical setup for MEA recording is based on discrete-element preamplifiers located close to the MEA device and a multi-wire cable that conducts the pre-amplified analog signals to a data acquisition card. With the increase in the number of MEA sensing sites, this approa...

A monolithic CMOS microelectrode array (MEA) for stimulation and recording of electrogenic cells is presented. The chip features addressability of an arbitrary electrode subset for stimulation, complete on-chip signal conditioning and A/D conversion. The array has been fabricated using an industrial 0.6-μm, 5-V CMOS technology with a 2-mask post-CMOS processing. Measurements from neuronal and c...
متن کاملTimed Test Generation Crosstalk Switch Failures in Domino CMOS Circuits
As technology scales into the deep submicron regime, capacitive coupling between signal lines becomes a dominant problem. Capacitive coupling is more acute for domino logic circuits since an irreversible, unwanted gate output transition can result. We present a timed test generation methodology for CMOS domino circuits that assigns the circuit inputs so that capacitively-coupled aggressors of a...
