where R2 is the resistance of the pseudo-resistor (which
is implemented with two p-channel MOSFETs, i.e., BSS84,
ON Semiconductor). The CCIA are cascaded by a non-inverting
amplifier and a 2nd-order low pass filter (LPF, to
filter out signals above 200 Hz). A coupling capacitor C5
is inserted between amplification stages to further compress
the EDO and the DC offset. When both the EDO
and the PLI are effectively attenuated, the required resolution
of the subsequent ADC can be low (i.e., around
11-12 bits), which makes the use of the internal ADCs of
the MCU possible.
The measured gain and the integrated input-referred
noise (IRN) of the preamplifier (in the frequency band
of interest from 1Hz to 200Hz) are 45.8dB and 4.9 μVrms,
respectively, as shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8. Table I shows
performance of the recording front-end compared with
commercial biopotential ICs (such as AD8233 [26] and
ADS1299 [27]).
VI. Thresholding Epileptic Seizure Detector (TESD)
The EEG signals in the ictal period is different from
the EEG signals in the inter-ictal (seizure-free) period
(Fig. 9), which is characterized by a series of spike
wave discharges (SWD's) with relatively large amplitude
(Fig. 10). Therefore, the thresholds of magnitude
in the time domain or the power spectrum density
in the frequency domain can be used for the TESD.
