MAX30001 Evaluation System
Detailed Description of Hardware
The MAX30001 EV system provides a single platform to
evaluate the functionality and features of the MAX30001
with Biopotential (ECG, R-to-R, and Pace Detection) and
Bioimpedance (BioZ) measurement capabilities. The
board contains jumpers and optional resistors and capacitors
to test the MAX30001 under several conditions. A list of
all jumpers and their respective functions is available in
Table
1. An onboard 32.768kHz crystal oscillator (U5)
supplies FCLK to the IC, but external frequency generation
is supported.

Evaluates: MAX30001
The EV system utilizes the MAX32630FTHR Cortex-M4F
Microcontroller for Wearables for interfacing with the
GUI and optionally providing power to the MAX30001.
The MAX32630FTHR operates either from a host PC
or directly from a Li+ battery. If an SD card is present in
the MAX32630FTHR, register settings and measurement
configurations can be saved through the GUI. When the
EV kit operates without a host PC, pressing SW2 on the
MAX32630FTHR initiates the measurement and saves
log files to the SD card. Logging is stoped by pressing
SW2 a second time.
Refer to
Figure 17
for a simplified schematic of the EV kit
biopotential circuitry.
