Design of an Innovative CMOS Front-End dedicated to a Reconfigurable MRI Receiver MIP: ams international AG

Abstract (German)

This project targets the development of the CMOS front-end of a MRI receiver. It will be reconfigurable with respect to the input frequency to work for different strengths of magnetic fields. Novel circuit topologies and implementation techniques will be needed to satisfy the strict requirements of the MRI front-end. A test bench will be developed to emulate the MRI environment such that the implemented receiver can be measured easily in the laboratory.
