    摘要: A piezoelectric element within an external ultrasonic transducer assembly can be used for wireless communication of data between an implantable device and the external ultrasonic transducer assembly such as using ultrasonic energy coupled to a flexible portion of a housing of the transducer assembly. The flexible portion can be configured to contact skin of a body containing the implantable device. The transducer assembly can be configured to respectively transmit or receive ultrasonic energy using at least partially overlapping respective ranges of resonant frequencies.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a cardioversion or defibrillation therapy energy source coupled to a bridge circuit. The bridge circuit includes a first switch for connection to a first implantable electrode, a second switch for connection to a second implantable electrode, a third switch coupled for connection to the first implantable electrode, and a fourth switch coupled for connection to the second implantable electrode. The first and second switches are formed on a shared first IC, the third and fourth switches are formed on a shared second IC, and the second IC is stacked substantially superjacent to the first IC such that a cathode of the first switch is coupled to an anode of the third switch and a cathode of the second switch is coupled to an anode of the fourth switch.
