Design of ECG Signal Acquisition and Processing Circult

Abstract:

ECG signal is, as a vital method performed on the heart study and clinical diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, an important human physiological signal, containing the human cardiac conduction system of physiological and pathological information. Aiming at the weak low frequency characteristic of ECG signals, the core circuit based on the AD620 and LM324 amplifier is given. After analyzing the major components of the ECG signal and the frequency range of interference, weak ECG signal collected by the electrodes is amplified by the preamplifier circuit, and the interference then is wiped out by using a low-pass filer, a high-pass filer, 50Hz notch filer and back amplifier circuit, finally a right wave of ECG is received. The characteristics of the system features the merits of high input impedance, high CMRR, low noise, less excursion and high SNR(signal to noise ratio), low cost and so on.
