    • A system and method for determining complex intercardiac impedance to detect various cardiac functions are disclosed involving a signal generator means for providing an adjustable direct current signal, a modulator for modulating the adjustable direct current signal to produce a modulated signal, at least one electrode for propagating the modulated signal across a myocardium, at least one sensor for detecting an outputted modulated signal from the myocardium, and at least one circuit to reduce the influence of process noise (aggressors) in the outputted modulated signal. The at least one circuit comprises an amplifier, a demodulator, and an integrator. The amplitude and phase of the final outputted modulated signal indicate the complex impedance of the myocardium. Changes in the complex impedance patterns of the myocardium provide indication of reduced oxygen and blood flow to the myocardium. The apparatus can be employed in implantable devices, including cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators.

    • An implantable infusion device includes an outlet and a reservoir. A flow path in fluid communication with the reservoir and the outlet includes a pressure regulator and a flow restrictor. The pressure regulator includes a major chamber and a diaphragm that divides the major chamber into first and second minor chambers. The flow restrictor is in fluid communication with the first and second minor chambers of the pressure regulator and is disposed downstream of the first minor chamber and upstream of the second minor chamber. The device also includes a processor coupled to a flow sensor to detect information regarding flow rate of the fluid downstream of the flow restrictor and a pressure adjustment actuator assembly. The processor provides regulates the flow of the fluid by adjusting the pressure in the first minor chamber relative to pressure in the second minor chamber based on the information from the sensor.

    • This disclosure describes a chopper-stabilized sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADC is configured to provide accurate output at low frequency with relatively low power. The chopper stabilized ADC substantially reduces or eliminates noise and offset from an output signal produced by the mixer amplifier. Dynamic limitations, i.e., glitching that result from chopper stabilization at low power are substantially eliminated or reduced through a combination of chopping at low impedance nodes within the mixer amplifier and feedback. The signal path of the ADC operates as a continuous time system, providing minimal aliasing of noise or external signals entering the signal pathway at the chop frequency or its harmonics. In this manner, the chopper-stabilized ADC can be used in a low power system, such as an implantable medical device (IMD), to provide a stable, low-noise output signal.
    • 本公开描述了斩波稳定的Σ-Δ模数转换器(ADC)。 ADC配置为以较低功率提供低频精确输出。 斩波稳定ADC大大减少或消除了由混频放大器产生的输出信号的噪声和偏移。 通过在混频放大器和反馈中的低阻抗节点处的斩波的组合,基本上消除或减少动态限制,即,在低功率下由斩波器稳定产生的啁啾。 ADC的信号路径作为连续时间系统工作,在斩波频率或其谐波处提供噪声或进入信号通道的外部信号的最小混叠。 以这种方式,斩波稳定的ADC可以用在诸如可植入医疗设备(IMD)的低功率系统中,以提供稳定的低噪声输出信号。

    • This disclosure describes a chopper mixer telemetry circuit for use in a wireless receiver. The receiver may be located in an implantable medical device (IMD) or external programmer. The chopper mixer telemetry circuit may include a mixer amplifier that operates as a synchronous demodulator to provide selective extraction of wireless signals received from a transmitter while suppressing out-of- band noise that can undermine the reliability of the telemetry link between an IMD or programmer and another device. The mixer amplifier may utilize parallel signal paths to convert the received telemetry signal into an in-phase (I) signal component and a quadrature (Q) signal component and recombine the I and Q signal components to reconstruct the total signal independently of the phase mismatch between the transmitter and receiver. Each signal path may include a chopper- stabilized mixer amplifier that amplifies telemetry signals within a desired band while suppressing out-of-band noise.
