Implantable pump system

A controller module for an implantable pump system including a pump having an electric motor, the controller module comprising:

• a processor;
• a motor controller electrically coupled to the processor, the motor controller connectable to an implantable pump system motor and operable to power a pump motor connected thereto such that the pump motor operates at a desired speed, the motor controller adapted to receive operating parameter information from a pump motor connected thereto and output digital representations of the pump motor operating parameters to the processor;
• a first memory device comprising a plurality of memory banks coupled to the processor for storing the digital data representing system operating parameters, at least one of the memory banks including a circular buffer for continuously storing real-time pump motor parameters in predefined time increments;
• and
• a user interface coupled to the processor for displaying the pump motor operating parameters.
