Product catalog summary
Overview: The DC-STIMULATOR MC is a programmable, multi-channel stimulator designed for scientific research in neuroscience. It provides non-invasive transcranial Electrical Stimulation (tES) using weak direct or alternating current to modulate brain activity. The device is capable of activating or inhibiting cortical activity depending on the parameters used.

  • Current range: 50-4,000 μA, with AC current adjustable up to 8,000 μA (peak-to-peak).
  • Frequency range: 0 - 1,000 Hz, with freely adjustable phase.
  • 16-bit D/A conversion with a time resolution of less than 1 ms.
  • Voltage limit: 30 V.
  • Dimensions: 420 mm x 395 mm x 170 mm; Weight: 4.2 kg.
  • Power supply via external medical power supply unit.
Features:
  • 4/8/12/16 programmable channels for various stimulation types including tDCS, tACS, CES, GVS, and tRNS.
  • Micro-processor-controlled constant current sources with independent channels.
  • Capability for continuous, cyclical, and sinusoidal stimulation up to 1,000 Hz.
  • High safety standards with multistage monitoring of the current path.
Applications:
  • Research, hospitals, and surgeries for controlled and monitored stimulation.
  • Software-controlled stimulation of specific brain regions with validation via fMRI.
  • Development and evaluation of user-specific stimulation sequences.
Options and Add-ons:
  • fMRI add-on for use without interference during EPI sequences.
  • Trigger Out for controlling external devices and remote control options.
  • Generation of arbitrary waveforms and stimulation via ROI modeling.

DC-STIMULATOR MC-1

DC-STIMULATOR MC Measuring and Modulating Brain Activity Programmable, multi-channel direct, alternating and random noise current stimulator The DC-STIMULATOR MC is a stimulator for use in scientific research that provides a stimulation using weak direct or alternating current (transcranial Electrical Stimulation tES) within non-invasive interventional Neurophysiology. The electrical charge and current density applied through a constant current source are far below the threshold for releasing a stimulus. Depending on the duration, the used current, the current density, and the frequency, the stimulation has a modular effect on existing neuronal elements by either activating or inhibiting cortical activity. The multi-channel DC-STIMULATOR MC allows computer-controlled, full-band stimulation from independent electrical sources using any desired signal type in the range of 0 - 1,000 Hz and currents of between 50-4,000 μA with a freely adjustable phase. Furthermore, the DC-STIMULATOR MC can be used during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and, in addition, can be combined with the NEURO PRAX® TMS/tES allowing full-band DC-EEG to be recorded during multi-channel tES. Areas of Application/Treatments Research, hospitals and surgeries: controlled, monitored and simultaneous tDCS/tACS/tRNS stimulation or sham stimulation of patient groups, multichannel tDCS/tACS/tRNS stimulation software-controlled, multi-channel stimulation of selected regions of the brain and validation of tES with the help of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) development and evaluation of user-specific stimulation sequences
