摘要:
A minimally invasive surgical instrument using 3-axis magnetic positioning, system and methods thereof. This invention describes two key ideas that enable the development of a magnetic position system based on integrated anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) magnetic field sensors. This achieves the resolution, power and area targets necessary to integrate 3 axes anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) sensors along with the Analog Front End integrated circuit (IC) in a 4 mm by 350 um integrated solution for catheter applications. The stringent area and power dissipation requirements are met by development through both system level solutions for higher field strengths and a minimally necessary Analog Front End (AFE) to meet the 1 mm rms resolution requirement in the power dissipation and area budget.
