System Board 6300
MAXREFDES117#: Heart-Rate and Pulse-Oximetry Monitor
The MAXREFDES117# reference design is a low power, optical heart-rate module
complete with integrated red and IR LEDs, and a power supply. This tiny board, perfect
for wearable projects, may be placed on a finger or earlobe to accurately detect heart
rate. This versatile module works with both Arduino and mbed platforms for quick
testing, development and system integration. A basic, open-source heart-rate and SpO2
algorithm is included in the example firmware.
The board features 8 sewing tap pads for attachment and quick electrical connection to
a development platform.
