In this paper, we describe a low power neuromorphic machine learner that utilizes device mismatch prevalent in today's VLSI processes to perform a significant part of the computation while a digital back end enables precision in the final output. The particular machine learning algorithm we use is extreme learning machine (ELM). Mismatch in silicon spiking neurons and synapses are used to perform the vector-matrix multiplication (VMM) that forms the first stage of this classifier and is the most computationally intensive. System simulations are presented to evaluate the dependence of performance (in a classification and a regression task) on analog and digital parameters like weight resolution, maximum spike frequency etc. SPICE simulations show that the proposed implementation is ≈ 92X more energy efficient as opposed to custom digital implementations for a classification task with 100 dimensional inputs. Measurement results for a regression task from a field programmable analog array (FPAA) fabricated in 0.35μm CMOS are presented as a proof of concept.

Although non-enzymatic glucose sensors have demonstrated better stability and reproducibility with respect to enzymatic ones, so far they have been inappropriate for most applications, since they require alkaline conditions to achieve the necessary sensitivity. In this work, we propose a gold nanogap-based non-enzymatic sensor to localize the generation of alkaline conditions inside the gap, thus preserving the overall pH in the media during glucose detection. The working principle is based on an electrochemical bi-potentiostatic measurement, where an alkaline aqueous condition is locally generated at one side of nanogap, while glucose detection is performed at the counterpart. To this purpose, a nanogap array platform was fabricated by means of standard lithography and controlled electromigration. Mono-potentiostatic electrochemical detection of ascorbic acid was successfully performed to preliminary test the platform prior to measuring glucose in bi-potentiostatic mode. Cyclic voltammetries reveal that two oxidation peaks are sensitive to glucose concentration, making nanogap glucose detection possible in principle. This promising proof of concept could be innovative in bio-applications with implantable devices or direct monitoring of cell culture, where neutral pH in contact with living tissue is required. Further geometrical improvements of the system to increase the durability of the sensor are currently still in progress, and are briefly discussed in the final part of the paper.

This paper presents a low-power low-noise amplifier for neural recording applications. A single-stage current-reuse telescopic topology is proposed to achieve high DC gain and improve the noise efficiency factor (NEF) while allowing the amplifier to be scaled for high bandwidth sensing applications and/or to achieve lower thermal noise floor. The design is fabricated in a standard 0.18μm CMOS process and occupies an active area of 0.16mm2. Experimental measurements show a 430nW power consumption from a 1.2V supply, a thermal noise floor of 63.8nV/√Hz and a corresponding NEF of 1.5.

The difficulty of detecting small quantities of arsenic in water currently threatens the health of millions of people worldwide, as long-term exposure to arsenic has been associated with both cancerous and noncancerous health risks. Existing technologies make it possible to very accurately quantify arsenic levels in water; however the expense, extensive training, and off-site analysis required by these methods impede wide scale-use. Electrochemical detection in a microfluidic platform offers many advantages, such as portability, minimal use of instrumentation, and ready integration with electronics. Toward a solution to water quality interventions, we have demonstrated an affordable and point-of-use microfluidic platform capable of detecting trace amounts of arsenic in groundwater samples. Our electrochemical sensor utilizes a three-electrode system with carbon, silver, and silver/silver chloride ink electrodes printed onto a disposable plastic substrate. A small water sample is applied to the electrodes and the current response is quickly captured, returning quantitative information to the user, which alleviates the lag times and imprecise colorimetric assays that encumber current arsenic detection systems.

Radar systems for detection of human heartbeats have mostly been single-channel systems with limited spatial resolution. In this paper, a radar for ultra-wideband (UWB) imaging of dynamic reflectors inside the human body is presented. To make the radar waves penetrate the human tissue a body-contact antenna is used. The antenna is an array with eight elements, and an antenna switch system connects the radar to the individual elements in sequence to form an image. Successive images are used to build up a time-lapse movie of the beating heart with a frame rate of 25 Hz. Measurements on a human test subject are presented and heartbeat waveforms are extracted at specific locations inside the body. The experiments indicate sufficient resolution for observation of different moving parts of the heart and may provide basis for live diagnosis.

In this paper we analyze a wireless biotelemetry link for an implanted UWB antenna located in the upper arm of a human. We use finite element analysis to characterize the specific absorption rate (SAR) of the surrounding tissue to determine the limits on transmitter power level for safe operation within the FCC restrictions on implanted electronics. We show the tradeoffs of safe transmit power levels verses bit error rate (BER), distance and data rate (Rb) for line of sight (LOS) and non-line of sight (NLOS) indoor propagation channels. A link budget is created to determine the received power levels for our FCC SAR compliant system as a function of distance, data rate and system bandwidth. Results demonstrate that for a BER of 1e-6 and data rate of 100 Mbps, the biotelemetry system can communicate using FSK modulation for distances up to 3.5 m and 0.7 m assuming worst case LOS and NLOS path loss environments, respectively. The system is analyzed using the maximum bandwidth (7.5 GHz) of the UWB spectrum and various FCC limited transmit power levels.

For in-vivo neuroscience experiments, implantable neural recording devices have been widely used to capture neural activity. With high acquisition rate, these devices require efficient on-chip compression methods to reduce power consumption for the subsequent wireless transmission. Recently, Compressed Sensing (CS) approaches have shown great potentials, but there exists the tradeoff between the complexity of the sensing circuit and its compression performance. To address this challenge, we proposed a two-stage CS method, including an on-chip sensing using random Bernoulli Matrix S and an off-chip sensing using Puffer transformation P. Our approach allows a simple circuit design and improves the reconstruction performance with the off-chip sensing. Moreover, we proposed to use measureed data as the sparsifying dictionary D. It delivers comparable reconstruction performance to the signal dependent dictionary and outperforms the standard basis. It also allows both D and P to be updated incrementally with reduced complexity. Experiments on simulation and real datasets show that the proposed approach can yield an average SNDR gain of more than 2 dB over other CS approaches.

A novel two-stage reaction-control scheme with a background-cancelling circuit - for reducing data volume and analysis time of an ion-sensitive-FET (ISFET) - based DNA sequencer-is proposed. The scheme successfully reduces the background noise and renders time-consuming background analysis unnecessary. It also reduces sample-to-data time by 72% (3.6 times faster) and data volume by two orders of magnitude.
