SiNAPS probes are high-channel count, active electrodes, similar to other silicon active probes available and popular today (E.g., NeuroPixels). However, what makes SiNAPS probes unique is the ability to record from all the electrode sites, not only a subset. This means a user can record from all 256 channels of a 256 channel SiNAPS probe. Same for the 512 channel and 1,024 channel versions.

SiNAPS probes are available now to Plexon OmniPlex users for beta testing. To start, the probes will be available and supported in a 256 channel configuration. Probes with 512 sites and 1,024 sites will be available and supported soon.

SiNAPS probes require an OmniPlex data acquisition system from Plexon. Please contact your salesperson at Plexon for more information or reach out via info@plexon.com.

Advantages
