    摘要: An implantable medical device (10) is disclosed. A housing includes a hollow body (11) forming a first electrode (62, 46) on an outer surface with end caps (12, 13) affixed to opposite ends, one end cap (12) forming a second electrode (61, 45). A microcontroller circuit is provided and includes a microcontroller (41) operable under program instructions stored within a non-volatile memory device (53). An analog front end (44) is interfaced to the electrodes (45, 46, 61, 62) to sense electrocardiographic signals. A transceiver circuit (42) is operable to wirelessly communicate with an external data device. The program instructions define instructions to continuously sample the electrocardiographic signals into the non-volatile memory device (53) and to offload the non-volatile memory device to the external data device. A receiving coil (33, 47) and a charging circuit (48) are operable to charge an onboard power source (49) for the microcontroller circuit.
