Abstract


The aim of this work is to design and implement an ECG generator for didactic biomedical engineering laboratory. The proposed generator provides analog ECG signals using synthesized or experimental records. The technique used in this work consists to generate the desired ECG waveforms through the PWM outputs of an Arduino board and low-pass filter. To provide many educational functions in both analog instrumentation and digital processing, the generator supplies output voltages in asymmetric or differential mode. To allow the user to setup the ECG signal to be generated, a LabVIEW application has been implemented. Experimentations on proposed generator and results were accomplished using the NI USB 6009 acquisition module and NI MAX software.
