Heart rate monitor IC

14 October 2015 Analogue, Mixed Signal, LSI

ams has premiered a new family of health/fitness solutions aimed at wearable devices, with the launch of the AS7000. The solution incorporates a highly integrated optical sensor module accompanied by software to provide optical heart rate measurements (HRM) and heart rate variation (HRV) readings, backed by opto-mechanical design-in support. Housed in a 6,1 x 4,1 x 1,0 mm package, the solution contains the AS7000 module including LEDs, photo-sensor, analog front end and controller as well as application software required to implement an accurate optical HRM/HRV fitness band product. In addition to HRM/HRV, the module also enables skin temperature and skin resistivity measurements by providing interfaces to external sensors.
