I have been looking at the circuit diagrams because I would like to use the ADS1298 on my board. Somethings I am unsure off and here goes the list of questions.
1) There is a low pass and a high pass filter before going into the ADS1298, and the diodes serve as an ESD protection?
2) Why have a Band-gap filter right at the beginning, why not filter the digital signal on the computer?
3) Where are the amplifiers? I have been looking for the IN amps, but can't find it. Is it inside the the ADS1298 chip? If it is what are the specs? is it good enough to be used for EEG?
4) What is the purpose of all the jumpers in the circuit?
