Abstract
Wireless body sensor networks is a wireless network of wearable computing devices. These devices may be embedded inside the body or surface mounted on the body in a fixed position. An application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is designed for wireless body sensor networks in medical applications. ASIC is an integrated circuit customised for a particular use rather than intended for general purpose. The Application specific integrated circuit designed is energy efficient and featured with work on demand protocol. This work on demand protocol is achieved by the use of a always-on passive RF receiver with an RF energy harvesting block. The energy efficiency is brought about by the use of low power microcontroller unit and power management unit. Apart from this the application specific integrated circuit also consists of sensor interfaces, communication ports controlling a wireless transceiver.
Keywords- ASIC, RF Receiver, WBSN and Medical Applications
