Chapter 3 Principle
3.1 Abstract of theory of ECG operation
The heart is a power organ of the body blood circulation. Before the systole or diastole, a cardiac
impulse happens in the heart muscle, and a faint bioelectric current signal is thus generated. The
bioelectric current signal is transmitted through the whole body, and the electric potential
difference is generated on the different skin surfaces because of the different distances from the
heart.
The cardiogram is a record of the amplification of the electric potential distribution on the body
skin surface. The electric potential difference is sampled by the electrodes, and is amplified and
processed by the electrocardiograph, and at last it is recorded on the paper. From it the doctor can
detect if the heart has a disease. The Electrocardiograph is just a kind of medical electrical
equipment intended for producing cardiograms for diagnostic purposes with 10 associated
electrodes at certain specific locations on the body. They only record the heart's electrical activity.
They do not produce any electricity of their own. The test does not hurt and has no known side
effects. It does not require any preparation (except for possibly shaving chest hair to get a better
recording). The recording itself takes only a few seconds.
There has been more than one hundred years since the electrocardiograph was applied in clinical
diagnosis. It is an important measure in clinical diagnosis of heart-disease. This instrument has
been equipped in almost every hospital and clinic.
3.2 Composition of ECG

The standard 12-lead electrocardiogram is a representation of the heart's electrical activity
recorded from electrodes on the body surface. The normal ECG wave consists of P wave, QRS
complex, ST segment, T wave and U wave. In the following figure, the x-axis is time and y-axis
is voltage. When the recording speed is 25mm/s and the sensitivity is 10mm/mV, one little grid in
x-axis represents 0.04 second, and one little grid in y-axis represents 0.1mV.
This diagram illustrates ECG waves and intervals as well as standard time and voltage measures
on the ECG paper.
-6-
Figure 3-1 Composition of ECG
P wave: the sequential activation (depolarization) of the right and left atria
QRS complex: right and left ventricular depolarization (normally the ventricles are
activated simultaneously)
ST-T wave: ventricular repolarization
U wave: origin for this wave is not clear - but probably represents
"after-depolarizations" in the ventricles.
PR interval: time interval from onset of atria depolarization (P wave) to onset of
ventricular depolarization (QRS complex)
QRS duration: duration of ventricular muscle depolarization
QT interval: duration of ventricular depolarization and repolarization
RR interval: duration of ventricular cardiac cycle (an indicator of ventricular rate)
PP interval: duration of atria cycle (an indicator or atria rate)
3.3 Lead
It is important to remember that the 12-lead ECG provides spatial information about the
heart's electrical activity in 3 approximately orthogonal directions:
Right
Left
Superior
Inferior
Anterior
Posterior

Each of the 12 leads represents a particular orientation in space, as indicated below (RA =
right arm; LA = left arm, LL = left leg):
Bipolar limb leads (frontal plane):
Lead I: RA (-) to LA (+) (Right Left, or lateral)
Lead II: RA (-) to LL (+) (Superior Inferior)
Lead III: LA (-) to LL (+) (Superior Inferior)
Augmented unipolar limb leads (frontal plane):
Lead aVR: RA (+) to [LA & LL] (-) (Rightward)
Lead aVL: LA (+) to [RA & LL] (-) (Leftward)

3.4.1 ECG Board description
Figure3-5 ECG Board circuit block diagram

-10-
This module is a 12-channel ECG signal sampling and processing module. It can realize the
amplification and pre-processing of patient ECG signal in every channel, and the detection of
lead situations, as well as sending data to ARM9 MCU. This module is connected to ARM9MCU
through UART port.
The standard 12-lead electrocardiograph has 10 lead cables, including 9 lead signal input and 1
Right Foot electrode as the float ground. The ECG signals pass through the defibrillator
protection circuit, buffering circuit (U1~U3), and enter the difference amplifier circuit. And then
they continue to pass through the pacemaker pulse restraining, high-pass filter, low-pass filter,
channel switch, second level amplification, and are sent to the A/D sampling port of
MSP430F147.
Because the ECG system must meet the safety requirement of the photo-electricity isolation, the
serial signals will be sent to the photo-electricity component.
3.4.2 Main control part description

The main control part includes ARM9 Board and Interface Circuit Board.
ARM9 Board consists of MCU S3C2410, SDRAM, NAND FLASH, NOR FLASH, LAN
controller, and CPLD etc. The main frequency is 203MHz.
The interface Circuit Board consists of RS232 interface, LAN interface, USB interface, printer
interface, LCD interface, and keyboard interface etc. It also provides power supply to the device.
Figure 3-6 ARM9 Board circuit block diagram
The system uses ARM9 (S3C2410) (U1) as the control MCU, and the peripheral equipments are
connected to the MCU ports. The MCU controls the peripheral equipments by several kinds of
methods. The system expands 64M external SDRAM (U6, U7), 64M FLASH (U2), LAN
-11-
Controller (U9) and CPLD (U8).

The Interface Circuit Board integrates all sockets for USB, Ethernet, Input/output, RS232 and
thermal printer. And the main control circuits include Paper Detection circuit (U18), Motor
Driving circuit (U16, U17), Thermal Recording circuit (U14, U15) and Heat Time Control circuit
(U19). And external analog input is connected to MCU by U21.
The thermal recorder has step motor and transmission frame of its own. And the paper detection
is carried out depending on a photoelectric diode.
The keyboard uses filmy keys, and the keyboard control component uses 3*4 matrixes, 12 keys in
total.
SE-3 (Configuration A) uses 192*64 LCD screen that adopts 8 bit bus interface. The mainboard
of SE-3 uses 8 GPIO to simulate 8 bit buses to control the reading and writing of LCD screen.
SE-3 (Configuration B) uses 320*240 LCD screen that adopts standard FSTN interface. Because
ARM9 has the FSTN interface of its own, it can be drived directly after connected.
3.4.3 Power control part description

220VAC voltage passes linear transformer and is transformed into 20VAC voltage. One part is
provided to charge the battery, and another part passes DC/DC to provide +8V for thermal
prinhead, +5V for electric machine, +5V for core board and +5V for ECG board.
