Asic Design For Medical/Healthcare

Faststream Technologies is a semiconductor design company that designs and markets specialty memory products for high reliability, extended temperature applications for industrial and Medical/healthcare applications. Quality, reliability, and sensitivity are the most significant for the equipment manufactured in the medical market segments. At Faststream, excellent standards and reliability are designed in, not just tested-in. The significance of quality and reliability starts at the earliest point of product design and continues at every step, right through to customer shipment. Faststream provides ASICs Design for Medical/Healthcare services with detailed device experts.

Faststream provides a wide range of memory products for use in medical devices which incorporates Flash, Ultra-Low Power (ULP) SRAMs, PSRAMs, and Mobile DRAMs for power critical, portable applications. Application Specific Integrated Circuit is used nowadays in implantable medical devices that can supply therapy for a number of conditions, from pain management to epilepsy and psychological disorders. A medical IC can be used in devices programmed to deliver drugs in a more productive way to effectively treat and relieve patient’s conditions with very few side effects. As implantable devices need to be small, lightweight and use less power, medical ICs aids you to come across the needs of medical device integration.

Various Expertise in Medical ICSWorker Solutions

We provide innovative custom analog and mixed-signal integrated circuit solutions. We custom design ICs for medical devices with low power requirements and small form-factors, for both implantable and external medical applications.

ASIC BASED, MEDICAL IMAGING READOUT SYSTEM

The prototyping board depending on ASIC Design for Medical/Healthcare Device is designed to read out Analog and Digital ASIC. This platform is designed for imaging purposes: Calorimetry, Silicon Tracker, and Medical Imaging.

The platform provides up to 240 digital high-speed I/O and 8, 120 MSPS 14 bit ADC channels. Almost all modern front-end ASIC can be validated with this system It is possible to read-out:

  • Pre-amplifier/shaper only ASIC with dedicated Analog output for each channel
  • Multiplexed channels Analog Output ASIC
  • Digital-only ASIC, for example, ASIC with the only comparator inside designed for applications requiring only timing information
  • ASIC with integrated ADC and/or TDC
  • 70 ps resolution TDC on Petiroc ASIC

Faststream Technologies carried out all Virtual Blocks to:

 

  • Executed trapezoidal filter or charge integration to measure the energy of the pulses
  • 5ns TDC in order to timestamp events and implement TOT
  • Analog Demultiplexer to readout data from multiplexed ASIC
  • ROC ASIC Decoders blocks
  • The devices could interface to the ASICs slow control using SPI, I2C, or Parallel interface

MEMS DRIVER ASIC FOR CONTACT LENS SENSOR

We have designed and developed an ASIC for sensing to set up straight with the contact lens. The MEMS sensor which can be digitized through ASIC is reading and transfers the assessments back to the recorder with the same RF link used to power the device using load modulation techniques. By using a 0.35µm process, Faststream could incorporate power capture and conditioning, RF signaling, high linearity ADC, and digital control functionality on a single die within the limited power budget and at low cost.

BENEFIT FOR THE CUSTOMERS

 

  • Faststream regulates the whole ASIC Design for Medical/Healthcare application life cycle for the client, comprises of design, prototyping, industrialization, and supply chain for different volume production. The bumped die is attached directly onto copper traces within the lens during manufacture, connecting it to the antenna and MEMS array.
  • Using this process Faststream could manage the demand for a high ENOB process during keeping within the power resources of the coil antenna.
