A Precision Low-Level DAS/ECG
Cardiotachometer Demo Board
The low-level DAS/ECG demo board:
• Provides a useful platform for low signal level circuit
development.
• Is useful as a portable, self-contained cardiotachometer.
• Demonstrates the ability of very small amplitude signals to be
amplified in the presence of large common-mode signals.
• Provides either AC or DC coupling, but very large gain may be
difficult to use for DC due to offset.
• Accommodates a variety of medical and non-medical sensors
and applications.
