In this paper, RF radio frequency principle is used to design a pure analog low power wireless neural signal acquisition module suitable for small animals. Compared with digital-analog hybrid scheme, the pure analog implementation had the advantages of small size, low power consumption and simple structure. The acquisition module were divided into two parts including analog front-end amplification and wireless data transmission. With the use of low-power, low-noise instrumentation amplifier INA333 and OPA333 op amp analog front-end amplifier, a two-stage amplifier structure was formed and the power consumption and size of the circuit was reduced. The feedback enhancement effect achieved by adding a feedback inductor reduced the power consumption of the Colpitts oscillator. The FM modulation of the oscillator used the inter-polar capacitance of the transistor to form a pure analog wireless data transmission circuit, so that the acquisition module had the advantages of small size, low power consumption and wireless data transmission features. Circuit simulation and experimental test results both showed that the module could complete the wireless acquisition of animal neural signals and had a certain practicality.

如图13所示为采集到的一个时间段内的熊蜂脑神经信号波形,该信号为采集到的神经信号原始信号,里面即包含锋电位(Spike)信号,也有场电位(LFP)信号等多种神经信号。由图可以明显的看到有突出的类锋电位波形,在下一步的信号处理中可以根据阈值检测等方法识别并检测分离出锋电位和场电位。熊蜂神经信号采集实验证明了本文所设计的低功耗动物神经信号无线采集模块的实用性,并且其低功耗以及小尺寸特性也赋予本系统具有更加好的适用性。
