Implantable electrode array assembly including a carrier, superstrates mounted to the carrier and electrodes disposed on the superstrates

摘要

An implantable electrode array (40, 310) that includes multiple spaced apart electrodes (42, 316) to which current can be individually sourced and sunk. The array includes a carrier (80, 312) that supports the electrodes. One or more control modules that source current to or sink current from the electrodes are disposed in windows (81, 404) within the carrier.
