Ultrasound energy harvesting system for deep implanted-medical-devices (IMDs) [PDF]
2012 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 2012 It is desirable in active medical implants to derive energy from external sources to charge a rechargeable battery. In this paper we have developed a novel system to transfer energy via ultrasound to a deep implanted medical device. Hence, an external base station is designed to transmitt energy and a 64-channel high-voltage driver is proposed for a ...
