CA 2702277

The invention relates to a device for stimulating living tissue, comprising an array (1) of stimulating microelectrodes (11) that are placed in a defined configuration side by side and able to be selected by applying an electrical signal for stimulation by one of the microelectrodes. According to the invention, an additional conducting surface (3) for application against the living tissue, is provided in the vicinity of a defined plurality of sections (210) for local application of microelectrodes (11), connecting means (32) being provided for electrical connection between the zones (31), and the additional conducting surface (3) being also connected to a lead (33) and being formed so as to ensure local stimulation via a microelectrode (11).
