Abstract This report describes the design of an isolated instrumentation amplifier, developed to be used in a multichannel electrocardiogram (ECG) recording system, such as large body surface mapping system (256 channels), and a flexible interface to communicate between the recording system and the IBM PC host. After discussing the specific properties of ECG preamplifier, the difficulties of meeting the demands of high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) with a design based on the classical instrumentation amplifier using three operational amplifiers are reviewed. An analysis of the total CMRR for four cascaded stages preamplifier circuit is earned out and the effects of unmatched operational amplifiers as input stage on CMRR are measured and compared by using different operational amplifiers. The difficulty in achieving the required high CMRR and medical level isolation using commercially available operational amplifiers and optocouplers to build an isolated differential amplifier was discussed. A novel interface to link a multiple ECG body potential system based on the STEbus to a host PC for data analysis and display is also proposed.

This might suggest an easy and straightforward relationship between the surface ECG signal and the heart's basic electrical activity and consequently a high accuracy of the diagnostic information derived from the recorded signals. Traditionally electrocardiograms were recorded by standard 12-lead measuring system. However, in present ECG research recording systems with a large number of measuring channels are often required. For example, a body surface mapping system may use as many as 256 channels. Since the development of the microcomputer, the possibility of real time acquisition and the processing of the large amount of data gathered has emerged. However, The proper measurement and amplification of ECG signals in the analogue front end present some specific problems. General amplifier design techniques are well developed and extensively described in the literature. But in the design of multi-channel ECG amplifier much attention should be paid to two requirements to be simultaneously fulfilled, interference rejection and patient safety. This thesis details the hardware design and analysis of 8 channel# isolation preamplifier which can be used as 8-channel module in the 256 channels body mapping

U prvom poglavlju data je opšta podela magistrala, ukratko je opisan njihov način funkcionisanja, dati su odgovarajući standardi, generacije, a ukratko su opisane i suerbrze magistrale. U drugom poglavlju dat je alfabetni spisak portova, od kojih je većina obuhvaćena ovim radom. Treće poglavlje odnosi se na portove personalnih računara, kako Pentium tako i Apple i Mackintosh. Četvrti deo odnosi se na opisane portove i interfejse i njihovo međusobno poređenje. U ovom poglavlju date su i detaljne tabele u kojima su navedene i opisane neke od najvažnijih funkcija. I konačno, peto poglavlje se odnosi na hardver – USB portove, memorijske kartice SCSI portove. U Nišu, 03.10.2008. godine 3 1. Magistrale Prilagodljivost personalnog računara - njegova sposobnost da se proširi pomoću više vrsta interfejsa dozvoljavajući priključivanje mnogo različitih klasa dodatnih sastavnih delova i periferijskih uredjaja - bila je jedan od ključnnih razloga njegovog uspeha. U suštini, moderni PC računarski sistem malo se razlikuje od originalne IBM konstrukcije - to je skup komponenata, kako unutrašnjih tako i spoljašnjih, medjusobno povezanih pomoću elektronskih magistrala, preko kojih podaci putuju, dok se obavlja ciklus obrade koji ih pretvara od podataka ulaza u podatke izlaza.

  • Appendix 1 Asynchronous Sequential Logic Design
    Appendix 1 Asynchronous Sequential Logic Design In this appendix a design method for asynchronous sequential logic design will be described. This method can be used to solve the problem specified in section 3.3, but as this is complicated the technique will be explained first using a simpler example, and then used on the more complex problem. This simpler example is a logic problem involving dynamic RAMs. These RAMs can perform a normal memory cycle (where data are read or written) or a refresh cycle. The two address strobes, RAS and CAS", determine which cycle is occurring, according to the following: If RAS goes low and then 'CAJ goes low, a normal memory cycle is instigated and continues while both strobes remain low. If'CAJ goes low and then RAS goes low, a refresh cycle is instigated and continues while both strobes remain low. A circuit is required which determines which cycle, if any, the RAM is operating. A suitable design technique for this problem is given below, though more detail can be found in Design of Logic Systems by D. Lewin. Al.l Sequentiallogic A normal combinational logic circuit is one whose outputs are determined by its current inputs. The outputs of a sequential logic circuit are deter­ mined by the current and the past inputs to the circuit. Inherent, therefore, in a sequential logic circuit is memory.

    T10/01-274r0 : 7 September 2001 To: T10 and T11 From: Gary S. Robinson, IR Subject: Report on ISO/IEC JTC1/SC25 and SC25/WG4 SC25 is comprised of 23 member countries as Principal members and 12 Observing (non-voting) countries. Many countries send more than one representative. The SC25 meeting is formal and is based upon procedural issues. Therefore most of this report is on the work on WG4 which is where T10 and T11 participate. The Scope of SC25 covers: Home electronics (WG1), Premises wiring (WG3), and Device interfaces (WG4). The first two groups, WG1 and WG3 were merged into SC25 from IEC and are different than the work of WG4, Device interfaces. To further complicate things, SC26, Microprocessor System was just merged into WG4. SC26 derived most of its projects from IEEE Computer Society Microprocessor Standards Committee. At this meeting WG4 went over past, current and possible future works as well as changing the name and Scope of WG4 and SC25 to reflect this merge in projects. Jurgen Märgner of IBM took over WG4 as official Convenor at this meeting. He is excellent and a real asset to this group. This SC25/WG4 report includes three documents: Attached below are the Resolutions and Action Points of WG4 (all were approved), the draft minutes, and, from the T10/11 web site, the chart T10/01-275r0 and T11/01-395v2. I have made some remarks (beginning with a ~ and using a red font). The Minutes are interesting but the Resolutions are the only official results of the meeting.
