Controlled stimulation delivery from neurostimulator
BC Towe, D Gulick - US Patent 9,446,255, 2016 - Google Patents
A system for providing neurostimulation includes an external device (“external exciter”) and
an implanted device. The external exciter includes an energy source which inductively
powers the implanted device. Examples of such external exciters include devices having at
least one of: ultrasonic transducers, Radio Frequency (RF) transmitters, and solar cells. The
implanted device includes circuitry that limits its maximum energy output to a predetermined
saturation threshold such that excess stimulation from the external exciter does not raise the …
