Introduction
A number of emerging medical applications such as electrocardiography (ECG), digital stethoscope, and pulse oximeters require DSP processing performance at very low power. The TMS320C5515 digital signal processor (DSP) is ideally suited for such applications. The C5515 is a member of TI's C5000 fixed-point DSP platform. To enable the development of a broad range of medical applications on the C5515, Texas Instruments has developed an MDK based on the C5515 DSP. A typical medical application includes: An analog front end, including sensors to pick up signals of interest from the body Signal processing algorithms for signal conditioning, performing measurements and running analytics on measurements to determine the health condition User control and interaction, including graphical display of the signal processing results and connectivity to enable remote patient monitoring
1.1

Introduction
Figure 1 shows an overview of the MDK hardware, consisting of individual analog front-end boards for ECG, digital stethoscope, pulse oximeter, and the C5515 DSP EVM. Any of the analog front-end boards can be connected, one of at a time, to the C5515 EVM using universal connectors on the front-end boards and the EVM. The analog front-end boards connect to the appropriate sensors for the ECG, digital stethoscope or the pulse oximeter, and perform analog signal conditioning and analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion of the signals from the sensor. Then, the digital signal is sent to the C5515 EVM where the C5515 DSP performs signal processing algorithms for the application. The DSP is also responsible for managing user control and interaction including graphical display of the signal processing results. The signal processing results can also be transferred from the C5515 EVM to a PC for further display, analysis, and storage using the PC application software that is provided with the MDK.

MDK Hardware Several elements of the MDK ECG system are: C5515 EVM ECG front-end board ECG cable
1.2.2.1
C5515 EVM
The EVM comes with a full compliment of on-board devices that suit a wide variety of application environments. For further details on the C5515 EVM, see the Medical Devlopment Kit provided with your EVM. Key components and interfaces of the C5515 EVM used in the MDK ECG system include: Texas Instrument's TMS320C5515 operating at 100 MHz User universal serial bus (USB) port via the C5515 Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) /serial peripheral interface (SPI) electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) External memory interface (EMIF), I2C, universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART), SPI interfaces SAR External IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990, IEEE Standard Test Access Port and Boundary-Scan Architecture (JTAG) emulation interface Embedded JTAG controller Color LCD display Keys (user switches) The EVM operates from a + 5 V external power supply or battery and is designed to work with TIs Code Composer Studio integrated development environment (IDE). Code Composer Studio communicates with the EVM board through the external emulator, or on-board emulator. 1.2.2.2 ECG Front-End Board
Figure 2 shows the ECG front-end board. The potentials captured by the electrodes are passed through the defibrillator protection (DP) circuit in the ECG front-end board. Then, the front end board derives 8 out of 12 ECG leads and provides the digital input to the DSP subsystem. The front-end board can be interfaced with the EVM board through a universal front-end connector. The front-end board is interfaced with and powered by the C5515 EVM board through the universal front-end connector by using I2C and I2S interfaces. The 16 channel analog-to-digital converter (ADC) (ADS1258) on the front-end board is configured for 500 Hz sampling with 24-bit data resolution. ADC is interfaced with the C5515 using the SPI bus.

1.2.2.3
ECG Cable
The ECG cable consists of four limb and six chest electrodes. This cable is connected to the front-end board through the DB15 connector. The ECG electrodes pick up ECG signals from the ECG simulator/patient and send them to the ECG front-end board; an off-the-shelf ECG cable is used. For more details regarding ECG cable, see Appendix C. 1.2.3 MDK Software The software for the MDK application includes: C5515 software application PC application 1.2.3.1 C5515 Software Application
The hardware is initialized by the DSP on the EVM. The DSP reads the digitized signals from the ADC through the SPI interface. The DSP subsystem conditions the ECG signals by removing DC offset and noise using digital filters. Then, the DSP subsystem derives the remaining four ECG electrodes, lead off status, and heart rate. The DSP subsystem also displays one channel ECG wave form, lead off information and heart rate on the LCD screen and sends the the ECG data to the PC application through the UART interface. 1.2.3.2 PC Application
The PC application, which has to be installed on the PC, can be used for viewing the ECG waveform, heart rate, and lead off information. It also provides options to zoom, store and playback the signals transmitted from the EVM. The PC application can operate in two modes: online and offline.
The front-end board has a DB15 connector to allow connection for 10 electrode ECG cables; it can be interfaced with the EVM board through the universal front-end connector. The C5515 EVM board supplies power to the front-end board through the universal front-end connector.

WARNING
If defibrillator is used for development purposes, use of medical grade EVM input power supply (Accessory Part Number: SL Power AULT Model MW173KB0503F01) is strongly recommended. Use of the Isolator (Accessory Part Number: MOXA Model Name: TCC-82) that isolates the MDK from the PC is also strongly recommended. These accessories provide additional supplemental protection to development users from high voltages that may be present when introducing defibrillator voltages during development simulation. There may also be other voltage transients sourced from the defibrillator to accompanying interface hardware such as a personal computer when used in conjunction with the ECG/EVM development hardware.
The defibrillator protection circuit protects the ECG system while the defibrillator is used on the patient.

The neon lamps and clamping diodes (zener diodes) are connected across the electrode input lines, to provide protection from the defibrillator pulse. The neon lamps give the first level of protection and the clamping diodes give the second level of protection. These shunting devices are used to bypass large voltage applied during defibrillation. The neon lamp (NE2 series) shunts voltages above 70 V-80 V. Zener diodes, with a breakdown voltage of 9.1 V, are used for shunting the voltage dropped across neon lamps to a safe 11.6 V ( VCC + VZ = 2.5 + 9.1) before it appears across the instrumentation amplifiers. A current limiting resistor (R1) of 20K with high energy withstanding capability (~ 2.5J) and power rating (> 1W) is placed in the series on each input line, which limits the current flow. One more current limiting resistor (R2) of 10K is put in between the neon lamp and the zener diodes to prevent high current from passing through the zener diodes. Figure 4 depicts the protection circuitry.

2.2
Right Leg Drive Circuit

A right-leg-drive circuit (RLD) is used as an alternative to the grounding of a patient with the MDK ECG system. In the RLD circuit, an electrode attached to the right leg is driven by the output of an auxiliary operational amplifier, where the common-mode voltage is sensed and amplified. The negative feedback of a common-mode signal in this circuit drives the common-mode voltage low. In turn, the bodys displacement current flows to the op-amp output circuit, which reduces the pickup of the ECG system and effectively grounds the patient. The averaging is done with the electrode signals RA, LA and LL. OPA335 is used as the inverting amplifier for the RLD circuit. The gain of the RLD circuit design is -39.
Figure 5. Right-Leg-Drive Circuit
2.3
Lead-Off Detection
The lead-off detection circuit detects the lead status for all the electrodes except RL.The lead-off detection has pull up registers, comparator (TLV3404) and an I2C port expander (PCA9535) as shown in Figure 6. The ECG electrode leads, except RL, are connected to a pull up resistor (10 M); when any one of the leads is disconnected, the voltage for that lead is pulled up to VCC (+ 2.3 V).
SPRAB36B June 2010

www.ti.com
The pull up circuit outputs are connected to the negative and positive terminals of the comparator, and set to 500 mV (threshold voltage). When any lead gets disconnected, the output of the comparator for that lead becomes 0 V. The output of the comparator is connected to the I2C port expander. The port expander generates an interrupt to the DSP whenever there is any change in the input voltage. The interrupt service routine at the DSP reads the output of the port expander using I2C lines and, correspondingly, updates the lead-off status.
Figure 6. Lead-Off Detection Circuit
2.4
Lead Formation Using Instrumentation Amplifier

The following ECG leads are formed using instrumentation amplifier (INA128) and ECG electrode combinations: Lead I = LA RA Lead II = LL RA Lead V1 = V1 - (LA + RA + LL) / 3 Lead V2 = V2 - (LA + RA + LL) / 3 Lead V3 = V3 - (LA + RA + LL) / 3 Lead V4 = V4 - (LA + RA + LL) / 3 Lead V5 = V5 - (LA + RA + LL) / 3 Lead V6 = V6 - (LA + RA + LL) / 3 Where, RA, LL, LA and V1 to V6 are ECG electrodes. Lead I is formed by connecting LA to the instrumentation amplifiers non-inverting input, while RA is connected to the inverting input. Lead II is formed by connecting LL to the instrumentation amplifiers non-inverting input, while RA is connected to the inverting input. Uni-polar chest leads (Lead V1 to Lead V6) are formed by applying the corresponding electrodes to the non-inverting input of the instrumentation amplifier, while the inverting input is connected with the average of the RA, LA and LL signals. The average is calculated by addition using three equal value resistors.

SPRAB36B June 2010

Figure 7 shows the lead formation for Lead I.
Figure 7. Lead I Formation The instrumentation amplifier also provides amplification of the weak input signal. The gain of the amplifier is set to 8.35 by using a 6.8K (R4) nominal value precision resistor.
2.5
Low-Pass Filters (Anti-Aliasing)

An active first-order, low-pass filter (LPF) is used for anti-aliasing and for removing frequencies above 150 Hz from each of the ECG leads. The LPF has a cutoff at 150 Hz. The instrumentation amplifier output is fed to the LPF filter input. Figure 8 shows the implementation for the LPF.

Analog-to-Digital Conversion (ADC)

Analog signals are converted to digital before sending them to the DSP sub-system. LPF output is connected as input to the ADC (ADS1258).

DSP Subsystem
The DSP software, running on the C5515 EVM, takes the digitized signal from the front-end board and processes it the same. The DSP receives eight ECG lead data from the ADC through the SPI interface. Then, filters are applied to remove DC signal, 50/60 Hz power line noise, and unwanted signals. The filtered signal is used to detect the heart rate and to obtain four ECG leads: Lead III, aVR, aVL and aVF. The software is designed to handle the following activities: Data acquisition through ADC Lead-off detection DC signal removal Multi band-pass filtering ECG leads formation QRS (HR) detection Display of ECG data UART communication

Figure 11. DSP Software Architecture The various blocks of the DSP subsystem are described in the following sections.
3.1
Data Acquisition
Using the C5515 timer, an interrupt is generated every 250 ms to sequentially acquire 500 sps of eight ECG leads. The interrupt service routine (ISR) issues a set channel number and (SOC) command to the ADC to acquire 24-bits of ECG data for the selected channel. The acquired data is provided to the infinite impulse response (IIR) filter module after downscaling to 20 bits; the data read for the same channel happens after every 2 ms. The ADC is interfaced with the DSP through the SPI bus.
3.2
Lead-Off Detection
The lead status is read in the IIR for INTR1 of the C5515 (external interrupt 1). This interrupt is generated in the front ECG board by the I2C port expander as and when the lead status is changed.
3.3
Interrupt Service Routine (IIR) Filter - DC Signal Removal

The DC signals from the eight ECG leads are removed by using the first-order IIR filter. The following transfer function is used for the filter:
H (z ) = Y (z ) X (z ) = 1 - z -1 1 - a z -1'
To provide DC attenuation of 22 dB, the value of alpha is chosen as 0.992. The IIR filter output is downscaled to 16 bits and then provided to the finite impulse response (FIR) filter.

FIR Filter
The multi band-pass filter (MBF) is used for removing unwanted signals and power line noise from the DC removed ECG lead data. The MBF digital filter being used is the FIR hamming window with the order of 351, which provides cutoff at 150 Hz and notch at 50/60 Hz; the notch frequency is compile-time programmable. This filter also provides a very sharp cutoff at 150 Hz with attenuation of 60 dB at stop-band and notch at 8 dB attenuation. The sampling frequency is 500 samples/second.

ECG Lead Computation

Eight ECG lead data from the MBF filter is fed to the ECG lead formation module. This module computes the remaining four ECG lead data using the following formula: Lead III = Lead II - Lead I Lead aVR = - Lead II + 0.5 * Lead III Lead aVL = Lead I - 0.5 * Lead II Lead aVF = Lead III + 0.5 * Lead I
3.6
QRS (HR) Detection Algorithm

QRS detection is based on the first derivative of the Lead II ECG signal and threshold. Once five consecutive QRS are detected, the heart rate is calculated by taking the average of the five RR intervals.
15
SPRAB36B June 2010

DSP Subsystem
www.ti.com
The following steps are involved for calculating heart rate: 1. Calculate the first derivative of the Lead II ECG signal samples. The first derivative for any sample is calculated as: y0(n) = |x(n + 1) x(n - 1)| Where, y0(n) is the first derivative. x(n + 1) is the sample value for (n + 1)th sample x(n 1) is the sample value for (n 1)th sample The initial 2sec of the first derivatives in a buffer are stored and the maximum value (P) in this buffer are obtained. 2. Calculate the threshold as 0.7 * P. 3. Compare each of the first derivative values calculated with the calculated threshold. 4. Mark the ECG sample index (S1) of that particular sample, whenever a derivative crosses the threshold. 5. Detect the QRS peak by scanning the next 40 derivatives (MAXIMA_SEARCH_WINDOW = 40) and obtaining the maxima (M1). This maxima (M1) value is stored in another buffer.
6. Skip the next 50 samples (SKIP_WINDOW = 50) to take care of the minimum RR interval that can occur in case of maximum detectable heart rate (i.e., 240 BPM), after detecting a QRS peak. 7. Detect the next five QRS peaks by repeating steps 3 to 6. 8. Calculate the RR interval as the number of samples between two consecutive QRS peaks. 9. Calculate heart rate using the following formula: HR per Minute = (60 * Sampling Rate)/(Average RR interval for five consecutive RR intervals) 10. Recalculate threshold from the QRS peak values detected.
3.7
LCD Display
The LCD display shows the ECG, heart rate, and lead-off status. The display is controlled using the SW7 and SW8 keys on the EVM as mentioned in Section 7.1.1. For each of these keys, an interrupt is generated and communicated to the DSP through the SAR interrupt. The interrupt service routine for the key that is pressed takes care of the corresponding action for the interrupt.
3.8
Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART)

The data sent to the PC through UART has eight ECG lead data; these signals are sent at 250 sps/lead. The PC application derives the remaining four ECG leads using the Lead I and Lead II data. A synchronization frame (header) of 5 bytes is also sent to the UART interface every 1 s. The packet number, heart rate, and lead status values are sent along with the ECG header. The header is followed by interleaved samples of eight ECG leads. The interval between the two ECG data packets is 500 ms. The packet number gets incremented for every new sample sent. The UART configuration is set as 115200 bps, 8 bits data, 1 stop bit and no parity.

PC Application
The PC application is used for viewing the ECG waveform and ECG values. It also provides options to zoom, store and playback the signals. The PC application has two modes of operation: online and offline. Online mode: the ECG data is plotted in real-time as a scrolling display Offline mode: the recorded ECG data is displayed for analysis Two timers run on the application for online mode: acquisition and display timer. The acquisition timer is set for 100 ms intervals and reads the data from the serial port. After fetching the data from serial port, it parses the stream of bytes to different variables like packet number, heart rate, lead-off status and to the ECG data object containing the digital value of eight leads ECG samples. The four non-acquired leads, Lead III, aVR, aVL and aVF data, are derived from Lead I and Lead II as follows: Lead III = Lead II - Lead I aVR = - Lead II + 0.5 * Lead III aVL = Lead I - 0.5 * Lead II aVF = Lead III + 0.5 * Lead I The ECG data object for each sample is stored in a queue buffer. The display timer is set to an interval of 60 ms and is used to plot the ECG wave forms, and update the heart rate and lead-off status information on the screen. This timer is elapsed every 60 ms; in each elapsed event 15 samples of the leads are plotted on the screen.

Appendix D MEDICAL DEVELOPMENT KIT (MDK) WARNINGS, RESTRICTIONS AND DISCLAIMER

Not for Diagnostic Use: For Feasibility Evaluation Only in Laboratory/Development Environments. The MDK may not be used for diagnostic purposes. This MDK is intended solely for evaluation and development purposes. It is not intended for diagnostic use and may not be used as all or part of an end equipment product. This MDK should be used solely by qualified engineers and technicians who are familiar with the risks associated with handling electrical and mechanical components, systems and subsystems. Your Obligations and Responsibilities. Please consult the TMS320VC5505 DSP Medical Development Kit (MDK) Quick Start Guide (SPRUGO1) prior to using the MDK. Any use of the MDK outside of the specified operating range may cause danger to the users and/or produce unintended results, inaccurate operation, and permanent damage to the MDK and associated electronics. You acknowledge and agree that: You are responsible for compliance with all applicable Federal, State and local regulatory requirements (including but not limited to Food and Drug Administration regulations, UL, CSA, VDE, CE, RoHS and WEEE,) that relate to your use (and that of your employees, contractors or designees) of the MDK for evaluation, testing and other purposes. You are responsible for the safety of you and your employees and contractors when using or handling the MDK. Further, you are responsible for ensuring that any contacts or interfaces between the MDK and any human body are designed to be safe and to avoid the risk of electrical shock. You will defend, indemnify and hold TI, its licensors and their representatives harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, expenses, costs and liabilities (collectively, "Claims") arising out of or in connection with any use of the MDK that is not in accordance with the terms of this agreement. This obligation shall apply whether Claims arise under the law of tort or contract or any other legal theory, and even if the MDK fails to perform as described or expected.
WARNING
If defibrillator is used for development purposes, use of medical grade EVM input power supply (Accessory Part Number: SL Power AULT Model MW173KB0503F01) is strongly recommended. Use of the Isolator (Accessory Part Number: MOXA Model Name: TCC-82) that isolates the MDK from the PC is also strongly recommended. These accessories provide additional supplemental protection to development users from high voltages that may be present when introducing defibrillator voltages during development simulation. There may also be other voltage transients sourced from the defibrillator to accompanying interface hardware such as a personal computer when used in conjunction with the ECG/EVM development hardware.
WARNING
To minimize risk of electric shock hazard, use only the following power supplies for the EVM module: Medical Development Applications: SL Power AULT Model MW173KB0503F01.
