This study presents a novel low-power preamplifier for pasteless electrocardiogram (ECG) recording. The device offers high common-mode rejection and meets clinical standards for portable heart monitoring.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Wearable Health Technology
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Pasteless electrocardiogram (ECG) recording offers advantages in patient comfort and ease of use.
  • Existing preamplifiers often struggle with low power consumption, high input impedance, and effective common-mode noise rejection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a very low-power preamplifier for pasteless ECG recording.
  • To achieve high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) and meet clinical signal quality standards.

Main Methods:

  • Design of a preamplifier utilizing a driven common electrode for enhanced noise rejection.
  • Characterization of gain, bandwidth, input impedance, and power consumption.
  • Evaluation of common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) and frequency response.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a gain of 43 dB with a 0.05 Hz-2 kHz bandwidth and 75 MΩ input impedance.
  • Demonstrated a CMRR exceeding 80 dB across the entire bandwidth.
  • Operated at a low power consumption of 30 μW from a 3.3-V battery.

Conclusions:

  • The developed preamplifier is suitable for portable, clinical ECG monitoring due to its low power, high performance, and noise rejection capabilities.
  • The design facilitates the creation of small, lightweight electrocardiographic equipment and heart-rate monitors.
