AD8232 KEYES Single Lead Heart Rate Monitor

Published Updated 30 views Report an error

AD8232 overview

The AD8232 Single Lead Heart Rate Monitor is a cost-effective board used to measure the electrical activity of the heart. This electrical activity can be charted as an ECG or Electrocardiogram and output as an analog reading. ECGs can be extremely noisy, the AD8232 Single Lead Heart Rate Monitor acts as an op amp to help obtain a clear signal from the PR and QT Intervals easily.

The AD8232 is an integrated signal conditioning block for ECG and other bio-potential measurement applications. It is designed to extract, amplify, and filter small bio-potential signals in the presence of noisy conditions, such as those created by motion or remote electrode placement

Output (ADC)Operational Amplifier Output. The fully conditioned heart rate signal is present at this output. OUT can be connected to the input of an ADC.
LO-Leads Off Comparator Output. In dc leads-off detection mode, LO− is high when the electrode to −IN is disconnected, and it is low when connected
LO+Leads Off Comparator Output. In dc leads detection mode, LOD+ is high when the +IN electrode is disconnected, and it is low when connected
SDNShutdown Control Input. Drive SDN low to enter the low-power shutdown mode.
RA (Right Arm)RED Biomedical electrode pad RA(input). Instrumentation Amplifier Negative Input. −IN is typically connected to the right arm (RA) electrode
LA (Left Arm)YELLOW Biomedical electrode pad LA(input). Instrumentation Amplifier Positive Input. +IN is typically connected to the left arm (LA) electrode
RL(Right Leg)GREEN Biomedical electrode pad RL(input). Right Leg Drive Output. Connect the driven electrode (typically, right leg) to the RLD pin.
