Power management for an implantable device

A method, comprising:

• determining, using a power management circuit of an implantable device, that a telemetry circuit of the implantable device satisfies a first defined criterion;
• disconnecting, using the power management circuit of the implantable device, the telemetry circuit from a power source of the implantable device, wherein the disconnecting is performed based on the determining that the telemetry circuit satisfies the first defined criterion;
• determining, using the power management circuit of the implantable device, that the telemetry circuit satisfies a second defined criterion;
• and
• connecting, using the power management circuit of the implantable device, the power source to the telemetry circuit via a first current-limiting device of the power management circuit, wherein the connecting is performed based on the determining that the telemetry circuit satisfies the second defined criterion.

An apparatus, comprising:

• a telemetry circuit configured to perform a telemetry session associated with a device;
• a power source configured to provide power to the telemetry circuit;
• and
• a power management circuit configured to determine that a telemetry circuit of the implantable device satisfies a first defined criterion, disconnect the telemetry circuit from a power source of the implantable device, wherein the disconnecting is performed based on the determining that the telemetry circuit satisfies the first defined criterion, determine that the telemetry circuit satisfies a second defined criterion, and connect the power source to the telemetry circuit via a first current-limiting device of the power management circuit, wherein the connecting is performed based on the determining that the telemetry circuit satisfies the second defined criterion.

A system, comprising:

• an implantable device comprising:
• a telemetry circuit configured to broadcast one or more advertising data packets;
• and
• a power management circuit configured to determine that a telemetry circuit of the implantable device satisfies a first defined criterion, disconnect the telemetry circuit from a power source of the implantable device, wherein the disconnecting is performed based on the determining that the telemetry circuit satisfies the first defined criterion, determine that the telemetry circuit satisfies a second defined criterion, and connect the power source to the telemetry circuit via a first current-limiting device of the power management circuit, wherein the connecting is performed based on the determining that the telemetry circuit satisfies the second defined criterion;
• and
• an external device configured to perform telemetry communication with the implantable device based on the one or more advertising data packets.
