  • Publication number: 20240008789
    Abstract: The device limits the leakage current in an electronic system for recording electrophysiological signals, where the transducer element is an active device, the device comprising an active transducer (1), intended to contact a human tissue, connected to a transimpedance amplifier (2), and a first resistor (6) connected parallel to the transimpedance amplifier (2), an alternate voltage source (7) and a direct voltage source (8), both connected to the active transducer (1), a first capacitor (3) connected between the alternate voltage source (7) and the active transducer (1), a second resistor (4) connected between the direct voltage source (8) and the active transducer (1), parallel with the first capacitor (3) and the alternate voltage source (7), and a second capacitor (5), connected between the active transducer (1) and the transimpedance amplifier (2).

  • Publication number: 20210345930
    Abstract: A graphene transistor system for measuring electrophysiological signals uses flexible epicortical and intracortical arrays of graphene solution-gated field-effect transistors (gSGFETs) to record infraslow signals alongside signals in the typical local field potential bandwidth. The graphene transistor system includes a processing unit, and at least one graphene transistor (gSGFET) a tunable voltage source connected to the drain and source terminals of the transistor (gSGFET), and at least one filter configured to acquire and split the signal from the transistor into at least a low frequency band signal and high frequency band signal, which are amplifiable with a gain value.
