Once a pathology is identified, a wide range of therapeutic devices such as ventilators, pacemakers, pumps, and stimulators can be used to assist or replace certain physiological functions as well as administer medication at specified schedule or provide therapy.
As these devices interact directly with a patient's health, ensuring the highest possible degree of safety and reliability as well as accuracy when processing data is a major challenge, especially in life-critical systems. Moreover, for battery-operated devices, manufacturers must ensure very low power consumption for an extended battery lifetime.
ST offers a broad range of products including ultra-low-power STM32 microcontrollers, high-efficiency power and battery management ICs as well as high-performance operational amplifiers and comparators and protection devices together with a range of low-power connectivity ICs and motor control solutions to help engineers design innovative therapeutic solutions.
