This paper presents a MUlti-SEnsor biomedical IC (MUSEIC). It features a high-performance, low-power analog front-end (AFE) and fully integrated DSP. The AFE has three biopotential readouts, one bio-impedance readout, and support for general-purpose analog sensors The biopotential readout channels can handle large differential electrode offsets (+/-400 mV), achieve high input impedance (>500 M Omega), low noise (<620 nVrms in 150 Hz), and large CMRR (>110 dB) without relying on trimming while consuming only 31 mu W/channel. In addition, fully integrated real-time motion artifact reduction, based on simultaneous electrode-tissue impedance measurement, with feedback to the analog domain is supported. The bio-impedance readout with pseudo-sine current generator achieves a resolution of 9.8 m Omega/root Hz while consuming just 58 mu W/channel. The DSP has a general purpose ARM Cortex M0 processor and an HW accelerator optimized for energy-efficient execution of various biomedical signal processing algorithms achieving 10x or more energy savings in vector multiply-accumulate executions.
