Design of an Oximeter Based on LED-LED Configuration and FPGA Technology

Design of an Oximeter Based on LED-LED Configuration and FPGA Technology

A fully digital photoplethysmographic (PPG) sensor and actuator has been developed. The sensing circuit uses one Light Emitting Diode (LED) for emitting light into human tissue and one LED for detecting the reflectance light from human tissue. A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is used to control the LEDs and determine the PPG and Blood Oxygen Saturation (S(p)O(2)). The configurations with ...

Design and implementation of an FPGA-based multiple-colour LED display board

LED Technology Trends

We will describe trends in the LED market and the consequences on the technical roadmap of LEDproducts. This will prescribe the focal points and direction of the upcoming manufacturing technologies. Two main trends are reinforcing at the moment. The first is an ongoing miniaturisation; the second one is the increasing number of power applications coming up due to higher chip efficiencies. INTRO...

An Efficient LUT Design on FPGA for Memory-Based Multiplication

An efficient Lookup Table (LUT) design for memory-based multiplier is proposed.  This multiplier can be preferred in DSP computation where one of the inputs, which is filter coefficient to the multiplier, is fixed. In this design, all possible product terms of input multiplicand with the fixed coefficient are stored directly in memory. In contrast to an earlier proposition Odd Multiple Storage ...

An LED based spectrophotometric instrument∗

The performance of an LED-based, dual-beam, spectrophotometer is discussed. The difficulty with producing an LED based instrument in the past has been the limited choice of LEDs, particularly in the blue/green region. Recent advances in LED technology have made such a device possible. The instrument discussed uses commercially available LEDs and other off-the-shelve electronic components which ...
