Abstract
Charge balancing has been often considered as one of the most critical requirement for neural stimulation circuits. Over the years several solutions have been proposed to precisely balance the charge transferred to the tissue during anodic and cathodic phases. Elaborate dynamic current sources/sinks with improved matching, and feedback loops have been proposed with a penalty on circuit complexity, area or power consumption. Here we review the dominant assumptions in safe stimulation protocols, and derive mathematical models to determine the effectiveness of passive charge balancing in a typical application scenario.
