Everything you need for a successful ASIC project from system concept to the delivery of fully tested custom integrated chips
Biomedical platform for ultra-low power vital signs monitoring providing a set of bio-sensor readouts power and clock management units, communication interfaces, processing functions ready for safer and faster integration.
This platform is the result of Belicim, a publicly-funded R&D project led by IC’Alps and supported by:
The R&D work continues. The objective is to get more and more IP technology blocks designed and validated on silicon for safer integration into ASIC.
This next phase of development will allow IC’Alps to design and test more and more blocks.
Medical reference design for ultra low power vital sign monitoring
Your area of expertise is implantable or wearable medical devices. Ours is integrated electronics, energy management and sensor interfacing.
This Biomedical platform for ultra-low power vital signs monitoring is composed of energy efficient IP technology blocks, ready for customization and ISO 13485:2016 certified.
Together we can help healthcare professionals adopt implantable and wearable devices for vital signs monitoring.
It is targeted at high precision and low-power continuous monitoring of vital signs such as Electrocardiogram (ECG), Photoplethysmography (PPG), Bio-impedance (BioZ ) and body temperature.
Available blocks
This diagram shows the entire range of semiconductor blocks included in the first assembly of this reference design. Most medical devices will only need a subset of these blocks.
