The MATRIX II
Technical Description

The Matrix II is a true capacitively coupled, current limited device for use in stimulating biological tissues. It is designed to deliver micro-amperes at a base frequency of 54 kHz, modulated at 16 Hz. This signal has been found to be effective in inducing the formation of bone in fractures that would not otherwise heal and is also effective in chronic and acute inflammatory conditions.

The Matrix II is housed in a lightweight plastic enclosure about the size of a standard paging unit (L 9.5 cm x W 6.0 cm x H 2.5 cm) making it completely portable. A standard 9-volt DC alkaline battery powers the Matrix II. Because the circuit design is highly energy efficient, the battery yields about 150 hours of operation. Weight is 108 grams.

The unique electronic design allows the electrodes to be placed directly on the skin or with a small air gap. Electrodes can be used with or without conductive jells. Biotronics Research recommends reusable and self-adhering electrodes for ease of application. The flexible carbon-based electrodes are easily molded to fit various parts of the body. The minimum size of the electrodes is 51.6 square cm. The cable that joins the Matrix II to the electrodes has a 3.5 mm mono plug on one end and two 2 mm plugs to go into the electrodes. The cable is 126 cm long.

The Matrix II is approved for sale in Canada (License Number 60273).
