Retinal prostheses substitute the functionality of damaged photoreceptors by electrically stimulating retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). RGCs, densely packed in a small region, needs a high spatial resolution of the microelectrode, which in turn raises its impedance. Therefore, the high output impedance circuit and the high compliance output voltage are the key characteristics of the current-source-based stimulator. Also, as the system is intended to implant in the retina, the stimulation parameter should be optimized for efficiency and safety. Here we designed 8-channel neural stimulator customized to the retinal ganglion cell. Designed IC is fabricated in the TSMC 0.18 μ m 1P6M RF CMOS process with 3.3 V supply voltage, occupying the 1060 μ m×950 μ m area.
