Abstract

In this paper, the possibilities of using the integrated circuit ADS1194 for measurement of ECG signals were investigated. A group of integrated circuits ADS119x enable an extensive range of configurations of internal electronics for various low-noise biopotential measurements. An 8-bit ATmega328P microcontroller was used to configure the ADS1194 circuit and acquire data. It has been shown that it is possible to measure the ECG signal with three electrodes taped to the chest in different configurations. The results were compared with a standard analogue electrocardiogram measurement circuit.
