This paper reports on a fully miniaturized brain-spinal interface (BSI) system for closed-loop cortically-controlled intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS). Fabricated in AMS 0.35μm two-poly four-metal complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology, this system-on-chip (SoC) measures ~ 3.46mm × 3.46mm and incorporates two identical 4-channel modules, each comprising a spike-recording front-end, embedded digital signal processing (DSP) unit, and programmable stimulating back-end. The DSP unit is capable of generating multichannel trigger signals for a wide array of ISMS triggering patterns based on real-time discrimination of a programmable number of intracortical neural spikes within a pre-specified time-bin duration via thresholding and user-adjustable time-amplitude windowing. The system is validated experimentally using an anesthetized rat model of a spinal cord contusion injury at the T8 level. Multichannel neural spikes are recorded from the cerebral cortex and converted in real time into electrical stimuli delivered to the lumbar spinal cord below the level of the injury, resulting in distinct patterns of hindlimb muscle activation.
本文报道了一种用于闭环皮层控制脊髓微刺激(ISMS)的全微型化脑脊髓接口(BSI)系统。该片上系统(SoC)采用意法半导体0.35μm两多晶硅四金属互补金属氧化物半导体(CMOS)技术制造,尺寸约为3.46mm×3.46mm,包含两个相同的4通道模块,每个模块包括一个尖峰记录前端、嵌入式数字信号处理(DSP)单元和可编程刺激后端。DSP单元能够通过阈值处理和用户可调节的时间幅度窗口化,在预先指定的时间间隔内对可编程数量的皮层内神经尖峰进行实时判别,从而为多种ISMS触发模式生成多通道触发信号。该系统在T8水平脊髓挫伤损伤的麻醉大鼠模型上进行了实验验证。从大脑皮层记录多通道神经尖峰,并实时转换为电刺激,传递到损伤水平以下的腰脊髓,从而导致后肢肌肉激活的不同模式。
