In this paper we report on the electrical impedance spectroscopy characterization of the attachment of two mammalian cell lines: endothelial cells (RFPEC) and fibroblast cells (V79). For electrical cell–substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) of the endothelial cells a commercially available eightwell cell culture impedance array (ECIS-8W1E) was used.
A wireless power supply system based on inductive coupling approach has been developed for implantable biomedical devices that achieves excellent transducer performance by obviating the need for electrical connectors. In this paper, we report in detail the modeling and electrical analysis of an inductive power link for activation of microwatt elect

Inductance is a property exhibited by a circuit element, called inductor. This property is a result of a changing magnetic field associated with a coil of given number of turns wounded on air core or core of some materials. Accordingly inductance depends on the geometrical dimensions, and the turns and the core used. Invariably the most important c
The on-going development in the field of sensors applications has opened up several possibilities for significant improvements in the advancement of bio-implantable devices or medical equipment. Some researchers have designed and developed inductive sensors for various applications such as tongues drive system enabling a person with severe disabili
RC circuit consists of a resistor and a capacitor which are connected in series. This chapter focuses on how the voltage develops (or shrinks) with a constant voltage source, V, is turned on (or off). Generally speaking, a capacitor accumulates charge for a current flow in, and obviously current flow out of a capacitor results into charge depletion
