| These biomedical
circuits and systems topics cover the techniques and methods employed to
build ultra low-power low-voltage high reliability building blocks dedicated
to implement advanced implantable and wirelessly controlled micro-systems
such as sensors and micro-stimulateurs. The lectures cover typical micro-devicse
and focus their principal building blocks such as power link, bidirectional
data link, different types of modulators and demodulators, voltage
regulators, integrators and filters, multi-voltage supply, building blocks
for measurement of several in vivo parameters, DACs, ADCs, and case studies
of cortical implantable microdevices. |
| Biography of Prof.
Mohamad Sawan Mohamad Sawan received the B.Sc. degree in electrical
engineering from Université Laval, Quebec, Canada in 1984, the M.Sc. and
Ph.D. degrees, both in electrical engineering, from Université de Sherbrooke,
Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada, in 1986 and 1990 respectively, and postdoctorate
training from McGill University, Montréal, Quebec, Canada in 1991. He joined
Ecole Polytechnique de Montréal in 1991 where he is currently a Professor in
Microelectronics. His scientific interests are the design and test of
mixed-signal (analog, digital and RF) circuits and systems, the digital and
analog signal processing, the modeling, design, integration, assembly and
validation of advanced wirelessely powered and controlled monitoring and
measurement techniques. These topics are oriented toward the biomedical
implantable devices and telecommunications applications. Dr. Sawan is a
holder of a Canadian Research Chair in Smart Medical Devices. He is leading
the ReSMiQ (Microelectronics Strategic Alliance of Quebec) research center
known and the Eastern Canadian IEEE-Solid State Circuits Society Chapter.
Also, he is cofounder of the International Functional Electrical
Stimulation Society, founder of PolySTIM neurotechnology laboratory at the
Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal, and founder of the Northeastern workshop on
Circuits And Systems (NewCAS). He received many awards for academic
excellence and he is cofounder of a Canadian biomedical technology company
Cortivision. He received the Barbara Turnbull 2003 award for spinal cord
research, he is Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering and Fellow of
the IEEE. |
