MAXREFDES100#健康传感器(hSensor)设计平台

Maxim builds complex and innovative solutions for medical and high-end fitness applications. These solutions are primarily stemming from multiple product lines within Maxim. In order to help customers evaluate the features of these solutions quickly and enable them with their designs, Maxim developed an integrated sensor platform called "hSensor" Platform. With this platform, customers can evaluate our portfolio faster and more easily for multiple use cases. The hSensor platform is also flexible to accommodate our newer solutions in design, or on the roadmap.

The hSensor platform supports the measurement of motion, precision skin temperature, and a variety of biopotential measurements, including electrocardiography (ECG), electromyography (EMG), and electroencephalography (EEG). In addition, the hSensor platform also supports a variety of reflective photo plethysmography measurements including pulse oximetry and heart-rate (HR) detection at three wavelengths, 880nm (infrared, IR), 660nm (red) and 537nm (green).

The platform supports GUI applications on Windows^®-based PCs and Android^®-based devices for simple data collection and visualization. Both direct USB connection (through a USB type C connector) and Bluetooth^® low energy (BLE) radio are supported for configuration and data collections.

A direct-to-flash memory mode is supported for data collection. Flash memory read using a USB connection is also implemented.

The microcontroller of the platform is programmed with firmware that manages the system, controls the registers of all the devices on the platform, and communicates with the PC GUI. For users who want to customize the firmware for the microcontroller, refer to the firmware development guide for details: mbed (referenced as MAX32620HSP).

The following items are included in the reference design box:

MAXREFDES100# board: the health-sensor board
MAXREFDES100HDK# board: the development board for the MAXREFDES100# sensor board
Battery holder: for the installation of CR2032-type coin-cell battery if a USB cable is not used
Two ECG cables: users can solder these two ECG cables to the board for ECG measurements
USB type-C cable: for the connection between a PC and the MAXREFDES100# board
Micro-USB cable: for the connection between a PC and the MAXREFDES100HDK# board

The following use cases can be evaluated using this platform:

Fitness Applications
Chest-based applications
Chest straps with HR
Chest straps with HR & ECG
Wrist-based applications
Smart watches with Optical HR
Ear-based applications
Headphones with Optical HR
Clinical applications

MAXREFDES100#参考设计硬件描述:

The MAX32620 microcontroller lies at the center of the hSensor. The following sensors are installed: MAX30003biopotential analog front-end (AFE), MAX30205 human body temperature sensor, MAX30101 pulse oximeter and heart-rate sensor, LIS2DH 3-axis accelerometer, LSM6DS3 3D accelerometer and 3D gyroscope, and BMP280 absolute barometric pressure sensor.

Power Supplies

The hSensor platform can be powered by a USB connection or by a CR2032-type coin cell battery. When both USB and coin cell are attached the power is drawn from the USB due to MOSFET / Schottky diode at Q4. If a coin cell is attached without USB the coin cell is used to power the hSensor platform.

The hSensor platform uses a MAX14720 PMIC for the majority of the power management. The PMIC has internal programming such that a 3-second button press at SW1 turns the device on. A 20-second press at SW2 turns the PMIC off.

The PMIC has a power-on configuration that provides 1.2V, 1.8V and VSYS voltages. Here VSYS comes from SWOUT, which in turn comes from the battery or USB through the PMIC pin SWIN. After power-up, the microcontroller configures the PMIC for a boost voltage of 3.3V, which appears at the HVOUT pin.

While the PMIC provides the majority of power management there are some additional power supply chips. The temperature sensors are powered by a MAX8880 LDO, which is powered by HVOUT (3.3V) and regulates this down to 2.5V. The PMIC itself is fed by a MAX8881 3.3V LDO when the hSensor is attached to USB.

ESD protection is provided by the MAX3205, which attaches to all of the USB signals except for DP/DM, which have ESD protection provided by the MAX32620.
