Patent ID: 8738146

Claim:
A control system, implantable in a human body, comprising: a drive comprising a drive clock; and at least one control device connected in a wired network of the bus type, the control device comprising: a control unit; and at least one electrode, the control unit being connected to the electrode for controlling the electrode in at least one of stimulation and measurement, the control unit including: a timing clock, a memory storing configuration data defined in order to allow configuration of the electrode in correspondence with identifiers; a further memory storing program data describing a time profile in correspondence with identifiers, an executor activatable to send to the electrode electric pulses corresponding to a given program according to a given electrode configuration, as a function of the timing clock, and a sequencer laid out for receiving an ordered plurality of pairs each comprising an electrode configuration identifier and a program identifier, and for selectively activating the executor with electrode and program configuration pairs, designated by the pairs of identifiers received at an input, as a function of the order of receipt and the timing clock; the drive being laid out in order to send, as a function of the drive clock, the plurality of pairs of identifiers to the sequencer.
