Abstract：

Implantable medical devices (IMD) are nowadays widely employed to restore functions to the impaired individuals suffering from diseases like deafness, blindness, cardiac insufficiency, incontinence, neural disorders, and many more. Concurrently, a growing number of IMDs are developed for basic research, such as neural modulator arrays or brain-machine-interfaces. Such implantable systems become increasingly challenging, if a large number of sensor or stimulation sites needs to be realized - space and power budget, safety issues, high bidirectional data rates, as well as the vast number of electrical make the electronic circuit design a complex task of research and development.

This talk will highlight some of the recent worldwide advances towards the realization of implantable medical devices, covering applications and system examples, as well as supporting circuitry, such as transcutaneous data telemetry including safety and security aspects, power telemetry, and adaptive power management, as well as highly efficient multichannel frontend architectures.

Speaker's Bio:

Maurits Ortmanns received the Dipl.-Ing. in Electrical Engineering from Saarland University, Germany and the Dr.-Ing. from IMTEK, University of Freiburg, Germany in 1999, and 2004, respectively. From 2004-2005 he was with sciworx GmbH, Hannover, Germany as a project leader in mixed-signal electronics. From 2006-2007 he was Assistant Professor for Integrated Interface Circuits at the University of Freiburg, Germany, and since 2008 he is full professor and director of the Institute of Microelectronics at the University of Ulm, Ulm, Germany. His research interests include mixed-signal integrated circuit design, self-correcting and reconfigurable analog circuits, with special emphasis on data converters and biomedical applications. He served as program committee member of ESSCirC, DATE, ECCTD, ICECS, as Associate Editor of IEEE TCAS I and TCAS II, as Guest Editor for IEEE JSSC, and as a program and executive committee member of ISSCC. He holds several patents, is coauthor of the book “Continuous-Time Sigma-Delta A/D Conversion”, and published more than 200 IEEE journal and conference papers.
