NanoWattICs to jointly develop the STIMPORTERTM System for acute and chronic pain mitigation
Apr. 07th/10 - The STIMPORTER is a patent-pending peripheral nerve electrical stimulation system that will improve present technology for acute and chronic pain mitigation. It is based on a re-usable active skin patch that can either be adapted to provide TENS on demand, or power a sub-cutaneous battery-less implant with a multi-electrode lead (for current steering) that is inserted laparascopically. Patients will be able to apply and wear the STIMPORTER patch as a regular heat/cold skin patch. Straight-forward programmability and re-charging, ease of use and wear (virtually invisible), and minimum-cost for reimbursement are the main features of the STIMPORTER System. If you are interested in learning more about the STIMPORTER System please contact Marcelo Baru at mbaru@nanowattics.com.

NanoWattICs joined CEITEC Brazil in its effort to develop a Region of Excellence in Microelectronics Jan. 17th/08 - CEITEC, Brazil's state-of-the-art Center in IC design and manufacturing (www.ceitecmicrossistemas.org.br), and NanoWattICs, have secured funding* for the co-development of an ultra-low-power, 10 bits A/D cell aimed at wireless sensor network nodes (motes) and other portable and implantable electronics. The initiative is also endorsed by the “Julio Ricaldoni Foundation” through the Microelectronics Group, Faculty of Engineering, Universidad de la Republica, Uruguay.The cell will be fabricated using XFAB's XC06 0.6 microns process, which is compatible with CEITEC's IC fabrication process scheduled to commence operation sometime in 2008.The created IP will be co-owned by NanoWattICs and CEITEC under terms not disclosed. This cooperation is the starting point of a planned roadmap with CEITEC which calls for several projects in the coming years, bringing sustainably growth for NanoWattICs' business. * Proyecto Financiado con recursos del "Fondo para la Convergencia Estructural del MERCOSUR".
