Summary:Disclosed is a neural stimulator for neural prosthesis: including a power receiver which receives power from outside and supplies the received power to a circuitry including an electrical signal generator; the electrical signal generator which generates a neural stimulating electrical signal; and a casing which protects the power receiver and the electrical signal generator from bodily fluid, wherein the power supplied by the power receiver to the circuitry including the electrical signal generator is AC logic power. In accordance with this disclosure, a neural stimulator with reduced production cost, simplified production process and reduced size, as compared with those of the related art, while being safe, may be provided.
