Abstract
The application-specific SoC (system-on-a-chip) implementation details of two wireless medical and health care applications will be presented: the wireless capsule endoscope (WCE) system and the wireless ligament balance measuring system (LBMS) in total knee arthroplasty. The WCE SoC has a half-duplex transceiver with 3Mbps TX and 64kbps RX working in the frequency range of 404-432 MHz, and the transmitter has a power efficiency of 1.3nJ/bit. The LBMS SoC adopts the same transceiver, and is specially designed for the high data transmission efficiency. Some system level implementation details about these two application systems will also be illustrated.
