Miniature bioelectric device accurately measures and telemeters temperature

Miniature micropower solid-state circuit measures and telemeters the body temperature of laboratory animals over periods up to two years. The circuit employs a thermistor as a temperature sensing element and an fm transmitter. It is constructed from conventional discrete components or integrated circuits.

High-performance RC bandpass filter is adapted to miniaturized construction

Miniaturized bandpass filter with RC networks is suitable for use in integrated circuits. The circuit consists of three stages of amplification with additional resistive and capacitive components to obtain the desired characteristics. The advantages of the active RC filter network are the reduction in size and weight and elimination of magnetic materials.

Miniature telemetry system accurately measures pressure

Miniature, low power, telemetry system that can be used with commercially available strain gage pressure transducers accurately measures pressure with a small implantable pressure cell and transmitter. The system has been used to date only with pressure transducers, but the circuit is equally applicable to any measurement using a strain gage sensor.

Miniature pressure transducer for stressed member application

Miniature pressure transducer responds to static or dynamic pressures acting against a structural surface without introducing errors caused by stresses in the structural surface. This is accomplished by a thin stainless steel pressure sensing diaphragm with an attached foil strain gage.
