Der ECG/GSR Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine, die eine Komplettlösung für die Entwicklung von ECG- und GSR-Anwendungen darstellt. Diese Platine verfügt über den AS7030B, einen Vitalzeichensensor basierend auf Photoplethysmographie (PPG) und Elektrokardiogramm (EKG)-Operationen von AMS-AG. Dieser Vitalzeichensensor verfügt über ein rauscharmes analoges Frontend, eine integrierte optische Einzelgerätelösung, einen synchronen Demodulator sowie Hauttemperatur- und Widerstandsmessungen durch Bereitstellung einer Schnittstelle zu externem NTC. Dieses Click Board™ eignet sich für Anwendungen mit medizinischen Ferndiagnosegeräten, wie z. B. Einwegpflaster für die Messung der Blutsauerstoffsättigung (SpO2) und des Elektrokardiogramms (EKG).
Das ECG/GSR Click Board™ wird durch eine mikroSDK-kompatible Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ ist ein gründlich getestetes Produkt und kann auf einem System verwendet werden, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
HINWEIS: Das ECG/GSR Click Board™ ist ein Entwicklungs- und Prototyping-Tool. Es ist nicht für die medizinische Behandlung von Patienten vorgesehen und sollte nicht zur Diagnose oder Behandlung von Erkrankungen verwendet werden.
How Does The ECG/GSR Click Board™ Work?
The ECG/GSR Click Board™ as its foundation uses the AS7030B, a vital sign sensor based on Photoplethysmography (PPG) and Electrocardiogram (ECG) operations from AMS-AG. These two popular methods are suitable for heart rate monitoring (HRM) and heart rate variability (HRV), which measure the pulse rate by sampling light modulated by blood vessels that expand and contract as blood pulses through them. The ECG is the reference for any measurement of the bio-potential generated by the heart.
This vital sign sensor features a low noise analogue front end, a single device integrated optical solution, and a synchronous demodulator. It consists of two 527nm green LEDs and one 940nm IR LED. The built-in infrared emitter and dedicated photodiode enable easy integration of proximity function. Besides the HRM and SpO2, the AS7030B is an optical measurement system for GSR (galvanic skin resistivity) and skin temperature obtained via an external temperature sensor connected to an onboard header labelled NTC.
The ECG/GSR Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface that supports Standard-Mode (100 kHz) and Fast-Mode (400 kHz) operation. Also, it uses two additional pins, the INT pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, used as an interrupt, and the EN pin, routed on the CS pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, used to put the AS7030B into Normal operation mode or in a Shutdown. The AS7030B does not require a specific Power-Up sequence but requires a supply voltage of 3.8V to work correctly. Therefore, the Click board™ uses a low dropout linear regulator AP7331 from Diodes Incorporated, providing a 3.8V out of 5V mikroBUS™ rail.
The ECG/GSR Click Board™ consists of two input channels routed to the 3.5mm jack connectors labelled as ECG and GSR, to which a 1m long ECG/EMG cable connects the electrodes to the appropriate Click board™ securely. The two electrode holders consist of a metal piece with a dent in the middle that perfectly fits the rivets on the electrodes. The contact with the measurement Click board™ remains good and secure, while mounting the cable's electrodes is simple and easy.
The ECG/GSR Click Board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the I2C communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
