Abstract
In this article, we present a 2D oscillator array-based magnetic sensor CMOS IC for flow cytometry. The CMOS IC packaged with a microfluidic channel eliminates the need for hydro-focusing by allowing uninhibited flow over the 2D chip surface. The chip exploits multi-site detection capability allowing simultaneously high flow rate for trace cell detection, reduced false positives, and real-time cell tracking. We demonstrate these functionalities with a 7 \times 7 array in 65-nm CMOS with lymphoma cancer cells.
