Abstract

Techniques for sensing neural responses such as Evoked Compound Action Potentials (ECAPs) in an implantable stimulator device are disclosed. A first therapeutic pulse phase is followed by a charge recovery phase that includes at least one high-impedance passive charge recovery duration. The ECAP is sensed during the high-impedance passive charge recovery duration. The time period of the passive charge recovery is lengthened and the high-impedance passive recharge duration entirely overlaps the ECAP (i.e., the neural response duration) at the sensing electrode.
