A 27-Mbps, 0.08-mm CMOS Transceiver with Simultaneous Near-field Power Transmission and Data Telemetry for Implantable Systems.

This paper describes an inductively powered 27-Mbps, 0.08-mm CMOS transceiver with integrated RF receiver coils for simultaneous two-way, near-field data telemetry and power transmission for implantable systems. A four-coil inductive link operates at a 27-MHz carrier for power and a 700-MHz carrier for data telemetry with the antennae taking an area of only 2 mm by 2 mm.

Integrated circuit-based electrochemical sensor for spatially resolved detection of redox-active metabolites in biofilms.

Despite advances in monitoring spatiotemporal expression patterns of genes and proteins with fluorescent probes, direct detection of metabolites and small molecules remains challenging. A technique for spatially resolved detection of small molecules would benefit the study of redox-active metabolites that are produced by microbial biofilms and can affect their development. Here we present an integrated circuit-based electrochemical sensing platform featuring an array of working electrodes and parallel potentiostat channels.
