- | A type of Heart Rate Monitor consists of an electronic circuit that monitors heartbeat by clipping onto a finger tip. It does this by shining light into or through your finger and measuring how much light is reflected or absorbed. This goes up and down as blood is pumped through your finger.

+ | Select the following components from the ADALP2000 Analog Parts Kit. Note, the parts kit contains both OP-482 and OP-484 quad op-amps. They look very similar and are both in 14 pin DIP packages. The laser branding on the packages can be hard to read. Fortunately they share a common pinout so you will not damage them if you use the wrong one in this experiment by accident. The circuit will just not operate properly. | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are two black plastic devices with two leads in the kit that look almost exactly the same. One is the photo transistor and the other is a photo diode. The one with the slightly shorter leads should be the photo transistor. If you have a DMM with a diode test function handy you can verify which is the photo diode and which is the photo transistor (the photo diode will conduct in one direction and the photo transistor will not conduct in either direction) | ||

- | The Heart Rate monitor can operate in either of two modes. In the first mode, as shown on the left of figure 4, the light form the LED is reflected as it passes into the tip of the finger and bounces back into the photo transistor. Arrange the LED and photo transistor right next to each other both facing up. It might be useful to shorten the leads so that they sit against the breadboard surface. In the second mode, as shown on the right of figure 4, the light from the LED passes through the tip of the finger and into the photo transistor on the other side. Put the tip of your finger between the IR LED (D1) and the Photo transistor (Q1). The emitter and the receiver should be aligned and pointing one to another. | + | The Heart Rate monitor can operate in either of two modes.
