The present disclosure describes systems and methods for improving the safety of bio-implantable electronics systems used for recording and electrical stimulation applications. The present disclosure discusses a communication protocol that provides DC balanced, bi-directional communication between a controller hub and satellite electrical stimulation and recording devices distributed throughout the patient's body. The present disclosure also describes a system for detecting and preventing current leaks along electrical pathways that may pass into a patient.

Integrated power delivery, communication, and health monitoring system for implantable electrode

A thermal event sensor includes a charge storage component formed on a substrate, configured to hold an initial charge, and configured to lose charge at a rate dependent upon temperature. A sensing interface is coupled to the charge storage component and a readout mechanism is coupled to the sensing interface. The readout mechanism senses a remaining charge on the charge storage component and provides a readout value indicative of the remaining charge.
