Abstract

L'invention concerne un générateur d'impulsions de stimulateur cardiaque numérique. Il comporte une pile d'alimentation dont la tension varie avec le temps, un oscillateur commandé par tension qui délivre des impulsions dont la fréquence décroît en même temps que la tension de la pile et qui sont comptées par un compteur, et un circuit de sortie commandé par le compteur de manière à émettre des impulsions de stimulation. L'invention s'applique notamment à des stimulateurs cardiaques implantables.
