US Patent Issued to Boston Scientific Neuromodulation on Feb. 17 for "Digital-to-analog converter circuitry for a stimulator device having non-linear amplitude adjustment" (California Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 17 -- United States Patent no. 12,551,690, issued on Feb. 17, was assigned to Boston Scientific Neuromodulation Corp. (Valencia, Calif.).

"Digital-to-analog converter circuitry for a stimulator device having non-linear amplitude adjustment" was invented by Goran N. Marnfeldt (Valencia, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) circuitry useable in a stimulator device is disclosed. The DAC circuitry produces an output current whose magnitude varies as a function of an amplitude value provided by a digital amplitude bus. The relationship of the output current to the amplitude (Iout(A)) may be linear or non-linear depending on the current-volta...
