Abstract

A powerful approach to the characterization of cellular electrical activity is electrical recording from cells or living tissues. The human central and / or peripheral nervous system has been a subject of study and fascination of the neuroscience and biomedical engineering communities for many decades. In this paper, we propose a new approach to feed implantable neural recording system, which based on extracting electrical power from human tissue warmth in order to supply a biomedical neural recording system. The major issue to overcome, in the design of a system that is aimed at being implant into the human body, is having a low power consumption, low noise circuit and small dimension to minimize tissue damage.
