Olimex Medical Series TI MSP430 Development Boards

Olimex Medical Series TI MSP430 Development Boards include the MOD-EKG and the MOD-PULSE development boards, both of which are based on TI's MSP430FG439 microcontroller. Olimex MOD-EKG is digital heart-rate monitor which displays the heartbeat rate per minute on the LCD. In addition, the application outputs a digital data stream via an RS232 serial port to allow EKG waveform display on a PC. An electrocardiogram (ECG), also called an EKG, is a graphic tracing of the voltage generated by the heart muscle during a heartbeat. In this application, the EKG waveform is used by the MCU to measure the heartbeat rate. Because heartbeat calculation is the major focus, the electrodes are simplified to two connections, one to a right hand and the other to the left hand. Olimex MOD-PULSE is an instrument for monitoring the blood oxygenation of a human. By measuring the oxygen level and heart rate, MOD-PULSE can display the levels of blood oxygenation and heart rate on its LCD display. MOD-PULSE can be connected to variety of Olimex's development boards via its UEXT connector.

Olimex Ltd. designs, prototypes, and manufactures printed circuit boards, sub-assemblies, and complete electronic products.
