Abstract

A readout device for a dual-functional neural observation system is presented. The authors separately developed the reading operation of an implantable CMOS image sensor and a setup for fast-scan cyclic voltammetry and implemented them together in a microcontroller-based device. The developed imaging readout device with a size of [Formula: see text] can reach the highest reading rate of 160 fps with a 120×268 pixel image sensor. The voltammetry function was verified through an experiment using commercial carbon fiber electrodes in phosphate-buffered saline. When the imaging is sequentially operated with 400 V/s-scan rate voltammetry from -0.4 to 1.3 V, the system can operate at up to 60 fps. With this system, calcium imaging and dopamine recording in a freely behaving mouse can be achieved together in a simpler manner. This study aims to be the basis for the development of an implantable multi-functional sensor.
