  • Patent number: 11826095
    Abstract: Ablation systems of the present disclosure facilitate the safe formation of wide and deep lesions. For example, ablation systems of the present disclosure can allow for the flow of irrigation fluid and blood through an expandable ablation electrode, resulting in efficient and effective cooling of the ablation electrode as the ablation electrode delivers energy at a treatment site of the patient. Additionally, or alternatively, ablation systems of the present disclosure can include a deformable ablation electrode and a plurality of sensors that, in cooperation, sense the deformation of the ablation electrode, to provide a robust indication of the extent and direction of contact between the ablation electrode and tissue at a treatment site.

  • Patent number: 8825170
    Abstract: Various techniques are described for periodically performing a calibration routine to calibrate a low-power system clock within an implantable medical device (IMD) based on a high accuracy reference clock also included in the IMD. The system clock is powered continuously, and the reference clock is only powered on during the calibration routine. The techniques include determining a clock error of the system clock based on a difference between frequencies of the system clock and the reference clock over a fixed number of clock cycles, and adjusting a trim value of the system clock to compensate for the clock error. Calibrating the system clock with a delta-sigma loop, for example, reduces the clock error over time. This allows accurate adjustment of the system clock to compensate for errors due to trim resolution, circuit noise and temperature.

  • Publication number: 20130234692
    Abstract: Voltage supply and method having a first reference and a second reference. The first reference has an operation mode configured to supply a first reference voltage at a first accuracy and consume an operation power and a standby mode configured to consume standby power less than the operation power. The second reference is configured to supply a second reference having a second accuracy less than the first accuracy of the first reference and which consumes a second reference power less than the operation power of the first reference, the second reference voltage being trimmable based, at least in part, on a comparison of the first reference voltage to the second reference voltage.
