Abstract
Disclosed herein is an IMD configured to communicate with another IMD and/or an external device using conducted communication. The fully-differential receiver has a pair of inputs, a pair of outputs, and a plurality of active stages therebetween. The pair of inputs of the fully-differential receiver are coupled to electrodes of the IMD. The fully-differential receiver is configured to operate in first and second modes. When operating in the first mode, the fully-differential receiver draws a first amount of current and is configured to monitor for a wakeup signal within a first frequency range. When operating in the second mode, the fully-differential receiver draws a second amount of current that is higher than the first amount of current, and is configured to receive one or more message content pulses within a second frequency range that is higher than the first frequency range.
