Abstract

See full text

A detection circuit for sensing signals in an implantable cochlear stimulator is provided. The detection circuit has a primary coil winding which is part of the detected circuit. The primary coil is placed adjacent to and coupled electromagnetically to a secondary coil winding which is connected to an isolated circuit. The isolated circuit has circuit means for processing the induced current in the isolated current. Because a transformer is employed, the detection circuit draws only minimal power from the detected circuit, and the sensed output voltage can be flexibly scaled.
