title: A miniature on-chip multi-functional ECG signal processor with 30 µW ultra-low power consumption.
abstract: In this paper, a miniature low-power Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal processing application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chip is proposed. This chip provides multiple critical functions for ECG analysis using a systematic wavelet transform algorithm and a novel SRAM-based ASIC architecture, while achieves low cost and high performance. Using 0.18 µm CMOS technology and 1 V power supply, this ASIC chip consumes only 29 µW and occupies an area of 3 mm(2). This on-chip ECG processor is highly suitable for reliable real-time cardiac status monitoring applications.
