ECG (Electrocardiography) and PPG (Photoplethysmography) simultaneously. Richtek Technology developed an Android APP with the evaluation board to evaluate RT1025 performance. This document describes the operation manual of Cardio EVK for RT1025 evaluation board.
The Cardio EVK is an Android APP to evaluate RT1025 performance with the Cardioid evaluation board. The evaluation board includes the RT1025 together with the BLE SiP and PPG modules to quickly evaluate the operation and performance of the RT1025. The evaluation board number is PCB106_V1. For more information, please find the related datasheet or application notes from Richtek website.
PPG device timing for different application and to power down the device for power saving. In order to achieve the high speed data acquisition, the RT1025 device was configured as a slave of SPI mode.
