The transponder has been designed in 0.35um AMS technology. The pressure sensitive device is a tunable capacitor which performs a linear variation depending on the pressure with a sensitivity (ΔC/ΔP) of 0.4 pF/KPa The ERS can measure the sensor output frequency with an INL error of 0.4%, a sensitivity Δf/ΔP = - 6.12MHz/kPa, occupies a volume of 1mm3 and consumes, respectively, 400uW and 360uW for dynamic and static power.

Activity: Remote Neuro-Cognitive Impairment Sensing by P300 Characterization Collaboration with: University of Bari (Neuroscience Dept.) Projects: PERSON (2016-2018, Regional Cluster), DIABESITY (2016-2018, Regional Cluster) The P300 is widely used in medical centers for neuro-cognitive detection, diagnosis and monitoring The mobile health system consists of custom fast processing algorithm for P300 characterization, a plag and play platform (game based) for the cognitive test and a direct link between patient and physician. The system is made up by: the patient and the medical parts. The novel method for P300 analysis overcomes the limitations of the previous approaches (ICA; PCA; grand average; etc.). The developed t-RIDE method shows that P300 amplitude ranges (3.6uV – 11uV), latencies (280ms- 390ms) and frontal-cortex spatial evidence (Pz, Fz, Cz) fully match the literature references.
