“ Battery-operated, implantable medical devices such as pacemakers need to minimize energy consumption in order to decrease battery (hence, implant) size and maximize the time until implant substitution is required. SOI technology, particularly FD-SOI, has several advantages for these systems in terms of analog and digital ultra-low-power operation, as well as ease of implementation of …
