Abstract

This paper describes a novel partial-current-steering stimulation circuit for implantable vestibular prostheses. The drive hardware momentarily delivers a charge-balanced asymmetric stimulus to a dummy load before steering towards the stimulation electrodes. In this fashion, power is conserved while still gaining from the benefits of current steering. The circuit has been designed to be digitally programmable as part of an implantable vestibular prosthesis. The hardware has been implemented in AMS 0.35 mum 2P4M CMOS technology.
