Hi,

I meet some problems when i use the AFE4400.The signal output is so small and with a lot of noise,I can only get the signal from the Red led,there are full of noise in the IR led signal.so

How to set the led current to get better signals?

How to choose the value of the Cpd?

Sean,

Are you using our EVM? If so, are you also using our GUI? Could you possibly send us a screen shot of your noisy signal?

Thank you,Amy.

I use my own board according to Ti refference.The following figure is the signal i get.The it's not the real PPG signal,Why is the second vally lower than the first one(in the same cardiac period)?

Best Regards.

Sean,

There are a few things that contribute to HRV (heart rate variability). Anything from physical activity, stress, etc. It doesn't look like you have much variability and your signal looks very good.
