An area-efficient 128-channel spike sorting processor for real-time neural recording with 0.175 μ W/channel in 65-nm CMOS

This paper presents a power- and area-efficient spike sorting processor (SSP) for real-time neural recordings. The proposed SSP includes novel detection, feature extraction, and improved K-means algorithms for better clustering accuracy, online clustering performance, and lower power and smaller are...
