Abstract
An implantable medical device (IMD) may include a sensor for providing a sensor output signal and a sense channel configured to receive the sensor output signal from the sensor. The sense channel may be configured to process the sensor output signal and output a sense channel output signal. The sense channel may have an adjustable performance level, wherein for a higher performance level the sense channel consumes more power than for a lower performance level. A controller may be configured to adjust the performance level of the sense channel to achieve more performance and more power consumption when a higher degree of sense channel performance is desired and to achieve less performance and less power consumption when a higher degree of performance is not desired.
