Neuropixels Data-Acquisition System: A Scalable Platform for Parallel Recording of 10,000+ Electrophysiological Signals.

Although CMOS fabrication has enabled a quick evolution in the design of high-density neural probes and neural-recording chips, the scaling and miniaturization of the complete data-acquisition systems has happened at a slower pace. This is mainly due to the complexity and the many requirements that change depending on the specific experimental settings. In essence, the fundamental challenge of a n...
