3 Description
The AFE4400 is a fully-integrated analog front-end (AFE) ideally suited for pulse oximeter applications. The device consists of a low-noise receiver channel with an integrated analog-to-digital converter (ADC), an LED transmit section, and diagnostics for sensor and LED fault detection. The device is a very configurable timing controller. This flexibility enables the user to have plete control of the device timing characteristics. To ease clocking requirements and provide a low-jitter clock to the AFE4400, an oscillator is also integrated that functions from an external crystal. The device municates to an external microcontroller or host processor using an SPI™ interface.
The device is a plete AFE solution packaged in a single, pact VQFN-40 package (6 mm × 6 mm) and is specified over the operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.
