Modern implantable medical devices, such as pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators, use aggressive power-management techniques to reduce SOC power. A typical modern pacemaker may consume on average only a few microamperes of current to achieve long battery life. To meet these low power requirements, engineers use many techniques that may be applicable today to other power-conscious designs. The techniques vary from analog to digital and from circuit to system level, all of which are necessary to keep power to such a minimum....more  (0) Comments
