Abstract :
A biological signal acquisition and processing set has been designed and realized. The set can be used in teaching basic principles in recording and analyzing biological signals. This set can be used in biomedical electronics engineering and biomedical technology laboratories. The set is especially helpful to teach how the biological signals are acquired and processed. ECG and EMG signals can be selected, amplified, filtered and transferred to the monitoring devices with this set while patient safety is provided. There are a number of connection points in the set for observing the signals at various levels. Students can make measurements at each of these steps with the connection probes outside the set. The output signals can, be observed using an oscilloscope. They can also be observed from a PC monitor with an electronic card connected to ISA bus.
