Millimeter scale implantable medical devices with years of lifetime can bring revolutionary advancements in health care. They could be safely introduced into human body without invasive operations and constantly monitor physiological signs without having to be replaced. However, it is very challenging to create such devices. Why? Conventional circuit and system design techniques fail to deliver the required energy efficiency to satisfy such long lifetime requirement with the constraint of almost invisible system size. In this program, Mingoo Seok discusses ultra low voltage systems and presents a range of new circuit and architectural design approaches to overcome the above challenges, and thus lead to millimeter scale medical systems. The University of Washington is committed to ensuring digital accessibility in our services, programs, and activities.
