Abstract

A low cost, low power, portable cardiac event recorder as a tether-free biological signal processor was developed. Dual channel ECG signals are sampled at 128Hz in 12 bits resolution. Sampled data are continuously recorded in a circular buffer. If event button is pressed, 2 minutes data before and after the event are recorded in 512 Kbyte SRAM. Total 11 events can be recorded. Data can be transferred to PC through RS-232 protocol. It operates for two months by a half AA size 3.6V Lithium battery. The system size is $55\times55\times13[mm^3]$.
