ABSTRACT:
A method of communicating data between an external device and an implantable medical device wherein a first pulse is transmitted as electromagnetic energy from one device to the other, is received and stored as electrostatic energy in the second device and, after a delay period representing data to be communicated, the stored energy is released and transmitted as electromagnetic energy back to the first device. A communications circuit in the implantable device for accomplishing the method includes an antenna coil, a non-linear electronic component in circuit communication with the antenna coil, a storage capacitor in circuit communication with the antenna coil and non-linear electronic component for storing energy received by the antenna coil, and a switch for selectively connecting the charged storage capacitor and the antenna coil to discharge the charge stored in the capacitor into the antenna coil.
