A micro-generating system for implanted medical devices is proposed. The system is composed of a microgenerator, a high-ratio gear, a metal magnet and exciting coils. The micro-generator is driven by a metal magnet to which the low frequency magnetic field is applied by the exciting coils. A model experiment and its results are shown and magnetic field design for a pacemaker is carried out.
