Abstract:
Objective To design a new portable vital signs monitor for family use. Methods TMS320F2812, a kind of digital signal processor, was applied as the main processor to control the functional mod-ules including A/D convertor, LCD display. Bluetooth communication module was introduced to achieve real-time fast transfer of data between the system and the PC. Results Not only can the system monitor electrocardiogram (ECG), breath rate, pulse rate, body temperature and other vital signs accurately, but also it runs stably. Conclusion The features of DSP and Bluetooth were well combined in the design of the family-oriented, easy to use, multi-functional monitor with small size, low power consumption and convenience. A broad application and market prospects can be predicted.
