MAXREFDES101#: Health Sensor Platform 2.0
User Guide
UG6780; Rev 2; 8/19
Abstract
This user guide provides information about preparing and running the MAXREFDES101# Health
Sensor Platform. This platform uses several biosensors, power-management ICs (PMIC), and
®
microcontrollers from Maxim Integrated
in a wrist worn design that allows the capture of
biosignals important to healthcare. The platform also contains algorithms for calculating heart
health based on the biosensor measurements.
