The AD8233 is an integrated signal conditioning block for electrocardiogram (ECG) and other biopotential measurement applications. It is designed to extract, amplify, and filter small biopotential signals in the presence of noisy conditions, such as those created by motion or remote electrode placement. This design allows an ultralow power analog-to-digital converter (ADC) or an embedded microcontroller to easily acquire the output signal.

The AD8233 implements a two-pole, high-pass filter for eliminating motion artifacts and the electrode half cell potential. This filter is tightly coupled with the instrumentation amplifier architecture to allow both large gain and high-pass filtering in a single stage, thereby saving space and cost.

An uncommitted operational amplifier enables the AD8233 to create a three-pole, low-pass filter to remove additional noise. The user can select the frequency cutoff of all filters to suit different types of applications.

To improve the common-mode rejection of the line frequencies in the system and other undesired interferences, the AD8233 includes a right leg drive (RLD) amplifier for driven electrode applications.

The AD8233 includes a fast restore function that reduces the duration of the otherwise long settling tails of the high-pass filters. After an abrupt signal change that rails the amplifier (such as a leads off condition), the AD8233 automatically adjusts to a higher filter cutoff. This feature allows the AD8233 to recover quickly, and therefore, to take valid measurements soon after connecting the electrodes to the subject.

The AD8233 is available in a 2 mm × 1.7 mm, 20-ball WLCSP package and a 150 μm thin die for height constrained applications. Performance is specified from 0°C to 70°C and is operational from −40°C to +85°C.

• Portable ECG
• Wearable and remote health monitors
• Gaming peripherals
• Biopotential signal acquisition, such as EMG or EEG

The MAX86178 is a complete PPG, ECG, and BioZ analog front-end solution that consists of two optical readout channels, one single-lead ECG channel, and a BioZ channel that supports both tetrapolar and bipolar electrode configurations, all of which can operate simultaneously. The optical readout channels support up to 6 LEDs and 4 photodiode inputs. The BioZ channel supports several modes of stimulation: square-wave sink/source currents, sine-wave currents, sine-wave voltages, and square-wave voltages with a range of frequencies to support multiple BioZ applications.

The MAX86178 EV kit consists of two boards. MAXSENSORBLE_EVKIT_B is the microcontroller (MCU) board while MAX86178_EVKIT_C is the sensor board containing the MAX86178. To enable PPG and ECG measurement capabilities, the sensor board also contains 3 LEDs (red, green, and IR), 3 discrete photodi-odes (Vishay VEMD8080), and component configurations on the ECG and BioZ channels. The EV kit can be powered through a USB connection to a PC using a USB-C to USB-A cable or a LiPo Battery. The EV kit communicates with the MAX86178GUI (should be installed in user’s system) through Bluetooth (WINBLE). The EV kit contains the latest firmware and comes with the MAXDAP-TYPE-C programming circuit board in case a firmware change is needed.

This user guide describes the operation of the EVAL-ADPD6000Z demonstration kit, which is an evaluation module for the ADPD6000.

The ADPD6000 is a fully integrated analog front end (AFE) for wearable vital signal monitoring (VSM) devices. The key functions of the ADPD6000 include photoplethysmography (PPG), electrocardiography (ECG), and body impedance analysis (BIA).

The demonstration kit includes both software and hardware. The EVAL-ADPD6000Z can evaluate the AFE feature and verify the system design based on the AFE. According to the requirements of the application, the user can use a cable connection or Bluetooth connection to establish communication between the PC and the EVAL-ADPD6000Z.

This user guide also describes the example configuration of the different functions of the ADPD6000.

For full details on the ADPD6000, see the ADPD6000 data sheet, which must be consulted in conjunction with the user guide when using the EVAL-ADPD6000Z.

The ADP5360 includes a high performance linear regulator for single Li-ion/Li-ion battery charging, ultralow quiescent current fuel gauge and battery protection circuit, an ultralow quiescent buck and a buck boost switching regulator, and a supervisory circuit.

The ADP5360CB-EVALZ evaluation board supports an external USB dongle connection and the graphic user interface (GUI) software allows the user to evaluate the comprehensive functionalities provided by the I2C interface.

The ADP5360 operates over the −40°C to +85°C junction temperature range and is available in a 32-ball, 2.56 mm × 2.56 mm WLCSP.

More information on the ADP5360 is provided in the ADP5360 data sheet, which must be consulted in conjunction with the evaluation board user guide.

This reference design provides information about preparing and operating the MAXREFDES282: Health Patch Platform. This platform uses high-sensitivity Photoplethysmogram (PPG), Electrocardiogram (ECG), Bio Impedance (BioZ) and temperature biosensors, and two power-management IC (PMIC) from Maxim Integrated^®, now part of Analog Devices^®, in a chest-patch design to capture biometric signals important for healthcare. The platform integrates algorithms to calculate those vital signs including heart rate (HR), respiration rate (RR), and blood oxygenation (SpO₂) based on the biosensors measurement data. The vital signs data can be displayed on a Windows^® GUI in real-time and logged to a local file for further study. This is a demonstration only reference design. The schematic, layout, and manufacturing files are not available.

Wearable and supporting documentation are available under NDA only.*
