Design of pillow type contactless recharging device for totally implantable middle ear systems Hyung Gyu Lim*, Jong Min Kim**, Min Kyu Kim**, Young Ho Yoon***, Tl Yong Park***, Byung Seop Song****, and Jin-Ho Cho****" Abstract A contactless recharging device for totally implantable middle ear systems has been designed as a pillow type that the user can recharge the implanted battery with taking a rest. The proposed device uses the electromagnetic coupling between the transmitting coil and the receiving coil. To supply sufficient power for the implanted circuits, each coil uses LC resonance and the implanted device uses voltage doubler. A power MOSFET is used for switching the DC voltage of LLC parallel circuit and the switching frequency demands on a programmable frequency generator which is controlled by microcontroller. In order to improve the electromagnetic coupling efficiency at specific positions of coil which may vary with the displacement of head, the optimal location of receiving coil was studied, and the 5 transmitting coils in a pillow for recharging the implant module was designed. From such a recharging experiment, it was found that the proposed device could provide the sufficient operating voltage within the distance of 4 em between pillow and the implanted device. Key Words : totally implantable middle ear system, contactless charge, electromagnetic coupling, LC resonance = AY APSE SAEZ BA79] LABS al AG + US Bt He}, Agel rs 22S 9B ES] ES + ME BS AE) FHT ov}, cf] %0] Arja7}9] 2S} Aae ahs} c]Yo} 4s] Whe Salo] U7} Fes Bo we}, we abe aol o}4} ste] 4712) AHS FE Bao) AV] Vas a7} Dass she}, 84 148 UTS Hes] Pte] BE AZWE ols) HES, 8712} Set As Hal, ARS SAAS ol Balok Sh] wee) SaaAI7} WE A) B834, 1S A HG 7st WEES SAT AVS TAS) AB AL} olsolalz Sey". gba} Mat SAgale Hal Best SA spr “se 2 aba + athe Bae] wie, ae 4] 1.4 abelaby olsto}2]z. 1849} yisz este} e179] Bet FVS SWAG, 2S} ooh de WE Ue WA S7bshe Hao, WazSS S U BAS BRei7] Aa} WWAos F7AEY By 7\ conventional hearing aid) AFG-S}S2 SLCH!, 0} ANE BA AP acoustic feedback)2= Ue $9) 3} (sound distortion)3} 8+2-9 (howlingyo] We} teh= st Bol 27) Wel, 71E9] MAS HSE + le a 2} MA7]S0] Bs) AF5|z gq a Say, ARORA ALAS School of Bluicd Engineering & Compute Sciene, Kyungpook National Universi) ™ segSclth GI SHAE (Deparment of Medial & Biologie!
