Springer CMOS Circuits for Biological Sensing and Processing

This book provides the most comprehensive and consistent survey of the field of IC design for Biological Sensing and Processing.  The authors describe a multitude of applications that require custom CMOS IC design and highlight the techniques in analog and mixed-signal circuit design that potentially can cross boundaries and benefit the very wide community of bio-medical engineers. From the Back Cover This book provides the most comprehensive and consistent survey of the field of IC design for Biological Sensing and Processing.  The authors describe a multitude of applications that require custom CMOS IC design and highlight the techniques in analog and mixed-signal circuit design that potentially can cross boundaries and benefit the very wide community of bio-medical engineers. Provides a single-source reference to the state-of-the-art in analog and mixed-signal circuit design for biological and chemical sensing; Highlights numerous applications, categorized as Ex-vivo, In-vivo, and Wearable and Technology Trends; Explains basic details of the circuits used in a very consistent manner, identifying clearly the CMOS and non-CMOS technologies used, along with the method to interact with the transducer (various kinds of electrodes, ion-sensitive layers, Carbon nanotubes etc.) About the Author Srinjoy Mitra is a lecturer at the University of Glasgow. He received his Ph.D. from the Institute of Neuroinformatics, ETH, Zurich in 2004. Until early 2016, he was part of the medical electronics division at IMEC, Belgium, and led multiple projects on wearable and implantable electronics. His primary research interest is in designing novel mixed-signal CMOS circuits for advancement in medical and neural electronics. David Cumming, FRSE, FREng, FIEEE, is the Head of the School of Engineering at the University of Glasgow.  He holds a PhD in microelectronics from the University of Cambridge and leads the Microsystem Technology Group in Glasgow where he has pioneered a range of CMOS based sensor technologies including chemical sensing arrays using ion sensitive field effect transistors and the integration of nanophotonic technologies for imaging applications.
