AD8232 module ECG/bioelectric signal acquisition development module compatible with arduino.
An integrated signal conditioning module for ECG and other bioelectric measurement applications. This device is designed to extract, amplify and filter weak bioelectric signals in the presence of noise caused by movement or remote electrode placement. This design enables ultra-low power analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) or embedded microcontrollers to easily acquire output signals.
AD8232 uses a two-pole high-pass filter to eliminate motion artifacts and electrode half-cell potential. The filter is tightly coupled with the instrumentation amplifier structure to achieve single-stage high gain and high-pass filtering, thereby saving space and cost.
AD8232 uses an unused constrained operational amplifier to create a three-pole low-pass filter, eliminating additional noise. Users can choose the cutoff frequency of all filters to meet the needs of different types of applications.
In order to improve the common-mode rejection performance of the system line frequency and other undesirable interference, the AD8232 contains an amplifier for use in driven lead applications such as right-side drive (RLD).
The AD8232 includes a fast recovery function that can reduce the long set-up tail of the high-pass filter. If there is a sudden change in the amplifier rail voltage (such as a lead-off situation), the AD8232 will automatically adjust to a higher filter cut-off state. This function allows the AD8232 to achieve rapid recovery, so that a valid measurement value can be obtained as soon as possible after the lead is connected to the electrode of the measurement object.
The rated temperature range for guaranteed performance is 0 ℃ to 70 ℃, and the operating temperature range is -40 ℃ to +85 ℃.
Applications:
- Fitness and exercise heart rate monitoring
- Portable ECG
- Game peripherals
- Bioelectric signal acquisition
Pin description:-
- Pin 1:- HPDRIVE Qualcomm driver output :- HPDRIVE should be connected to the capacitor in the first high-pass filter.
AD8232 drives this pin to keep HPSENSE at the same level as the reference voltage.
- Pin 2:- +IN Positive input of instrumentation amplifier:- +IN is usually connected to the left arm (LA) electrode.
- Pin 3:- −IN Instrument amplifier negative input:- −IN is usually connected to the right arm (RA) electrode.
- Pin 4:- RLDFB right leg drive feedback input:- RLDFB is the feedback pin of the right leg drive circuit.
- Pin 5:- RLD Right leg drive output terminal:- The drive electrode (usually the right leg) should be connected to the RLD pin.
- Pin 6:- SW Fast recovery switch pin:- This pin should be connected to the output of the second high-pass filter.
- Pin 7:- OPAMP+ Operational amplifier non-inverting input terminal.
- Pin 8:- REFOUT Reference voltage buffer output terminal:- The instrumentation amplifier output refers to this potential.
REFOUT should be used as a virtual ground for any point in the circuit that requires a reference signal.
- Pin 9:- OPAMP− Inverting input terminal of operational amplifier.
- Pin 10:- OUT Operational amplifier output:- This output provides a conditioned heart rate signal.
OUT can be connected to the input terminal of the ADC.
- Pin 11:- LOD− The lead falls off the output of the comparator:- In the DC lead-off detection mode, when disconnected from the −IN electrode,
LOD− is in a high level state, otherwise, it is in a low level state. In the AC lead-off detection mode, LOD− is always in the low state.
The lead falls off the output of the comparator. In the DC lead-off detection mode, when the +IN electrode is disconnected, LOD+ is in a high level state,
otherwise, it is in a low level state. In the AC lead-off detection mode, when the −IN or +IN electrode is disconnected, the LOD+ is at a high level.
When both electrodes are connected, they are in a low level state.
- Pin 12:- LOD+
- Pin 13:- SDN shutdown control input:- Drive SDN to a low level to enter a low-power shutdown mode.
- Pin 14:- AC/DC lead off mode control input:- For the DC lead-off mode, the AC/DC pin should be driven to a low level.
For AC lead-off mode, the AC/DC pin should be driven to a high level.
- Pin 15:- FR Fast recovery control input:- Driving FR to a high level enables fast recovery mode; otherwise, it should be driven to a low level.
- Pin 16:- GND Power ground:-
- Pin 17:- +VS Power pin:-
- Pin 18:- REFIN Reference voltage buffer input terminal:- REFIN (high impedance input pin) can be used to set the level of the reference voltage buffer.
- Pin 19:- IAOUT Instrumentation amplifier output pin:-
- Pin 20:- HPSENSE instrument amplifier high pass detection input:-
HPSENSE should be connected to the R and C nodes that set the corner frequency of the DC blocking circuit.
EP Exposed Pad. The exposed pad should be connected to GND or left unconnected.
