Integrated CMOS electronic system-on-chip for medical sensors and actuators

We present an overview of an integrated low-power, lightweight, compact computing platform dedicated to addressing specific needs in sensing and actuation. The architecture includes an adaptive computing electronic design (Chip) that supersedes the capabilities of present microcomputing paradigms (micro-processors, micro-controllers, and DSPs) in the application domains of process identification, modeling, prediction, and real-time control. In particular, a domain of prominent applications is biological and medical measurements and stimulation.
