Electrocardiógrafo portátil usando plataforma nios ii

Abstract

In this paper we show the design and implementation of a portable electrocardiograph using NIOS II processor. This device is a prototype with similar characteristics to commercial electrocardiograph, where the cardiac signal is obtained while the patient is at rest and stored in SD card. For the acquisition, processing and visualization of the cardiac signal we use the NIOS II embedded Evaluation Kit development board based on Cyclone III FPGA device form Altera, in which the architecture was designed for a mini-computer based on the NIOS II microprocessor. This work “Portable Electrocardiograph using NIOS II platform” has developed witch the news technologies as the FPGA from Altera due to its versatility.
