Application Notes
Using an electrocardiogram (ECG) is an invaluable way to identify various physical ailments. To conduct an ECG, medical personnel place leads on a patient’s skin and measure the electrical activity of the heart over one beat cycle. The outputs of the leads are combined to create an ECG signal. Variations in the signal amplitude and timing provide indications of various ailments such as myocardial infarction, hypocalcaemia, and emphysema. Today there is a wide array of cardiac equipment that displays and interprets ECG signal patterns. Medical equipment designers need a flexible way to seamlessly generate accurate ECG signal patterns to verify and test their designs. In this measurement brief, we will discuss how to generate complex ECG signal patterns with an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG).
