respiration (RESP) and temperature (TEMP).
2.2.2.2 Principle diagram
Figure 2-5 Working principle of the ECG/RESP/TEMP module
2.2.2.3 Principle
This module collects the ECG, RESP and TEMP signals through the transducer, processes the
signals, and sends the data to the main board through the serial port.
ECG Signal Input Circuit
The input protection and filtering circuits receive the ECG signal from the transducer, and filter
the high-frequency interference signal to protect the circuit against the damage by defibrillator
high-voltage and ESD.
The right-leg drive circuit gets the 50/60Hz power common-mode signal from the lead cable,
and sends the negative feedback signal to the human body to reject the common-mode
interference signal on the lead cable, which helps the detection of the ECG signal.
The lead-off detecting circuit checks whether the ECG lead is off, and sends the information to
CPU.
ECG Signal Process Circuit
The difference amplifying circuit conducts the primary amplification of the ECG signal and
9
Chapter 2 Principles
rejects the common-mode interference signal.
The low-pas filtering circuit filters the high-frequency interference signal beyond the frequency
band of the ECG signal.
The PACE signal refers to the ECG pace signal. It has significant interference to the ECG
signal detection. The PACE rejection circuit can rejects the PACE signal, which helps the ECG
signal detection.
The main amplifying/filtering circuit conducts the secondary amplification of the ECG signal,
filters the signal, and then sends the ECG signal to the A/D conversion part.
Pace Detect
This part detects the PACE signal from the ECG signal and sends it to CPU.

This module collects the CO/IBP signal through the transducers, processes it and sends it
to the main board throgh the serial port.
CO Signal Process Network
The CO parameter is measured with the thermal dilution method. The transducer
sends two signals (TI: Temperature of Injectate; TB: Temperature of Blood) to the CO
Signal Process Network. After that, the signals are amplified and low-pass filtered, and
then sent to the CPU System for processing.
IBP Signal Process Network
The IBP signal is the differential signal. After the common-mode filtering, the difference
signal is amplified by the difference amplifying circuit which changes the dual-end signal
to the single-end signal. After the low-pass filtering, the IBP signal is sent to the CPU
System for processing.

2.2.5.1 General
This module provides the function of measuring the Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP)
parameter.

2.2.5.3 Principle
The NIBP is measured based on the pulse vibration principle. Inflate the cuff which is on the
forearm till the cuff pressure blocks the arterial blood, and then deflate the cuff according to a
specified algorithm. While the cuff pressure is decreasing, the arterial blood has pulses, which
are sensed by the pressure transducer in the cuff. Consequently, the pressure transducer,
connected with the windpipe of the cuff, generates a pulsation signal, which is then processed
by the NIBP module to get the NIBP value.
