AFE4400: AFE4400

Part Number: AFE4400

Hello,

Using AFE4400, I have been collecting PPG signals from various subjects. The process I follow is : the collected sample from AFE4400 goes through average filter followed by HP filter.  So far, my observation is mixed. For example, PPG signals collected from few subjects look very normal and without distortion. With the same setting, for some others, the collected signal is very distorted. That is, there is a lack of consistency. How I can achieve consistency in terms of signal quality? Any suggestions, please.

Regards.

  • Hi Nazrul,

    The received PPG signal depends on many such as skin tone, location of blood vessels etc. So to overcome this inconsistency some signal chain parameters such as LED current, TIA Gain etc. has to be tweaked from person to person.
    It would be really helpful to debug the issue if you could share the waveforms for both the cases.
