Since the real circuit uses quad OP484FPZ from the ADALP2000 Analog Parts Kit, the schematic design was implemented with multiple OP184 Precision Rail-to-Rail Operational Amplifiers. They are dual supplied (± 5V) from the ADALM2000 module, operating on a range of 10V. | The LTspice simulation uses OP284s, included in the standard set of LTspice models. The actual circuit is constructed with the quad OP484FPZ from the ADALP2000 Analog Parts Kit, powered by ± 5V from the ADALM2000 module (a total supply voltage of 10V.) |

The input signal from the heartbeat measurement setup is fed into a Differentiator Amplifier Circuit(([[http://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/opamp/opamp_7.html|Differentiator Amplifier]])) (C<sub>1</sub>, A<sub>1</sub>, R<sub>3</sub>). The capacitor blocks any DC content, C<sub>1</sub> and R<sub>3</sub> behaving as a high pass filter with the cut-off frequency F<sub>c1</sub> being determined by the following formula: | The input signal from the heartbeat measurement setup is fed into a Differentiator Amplifier Circuit(([[http://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/opamp/opamp_7.html|Differentiator Amplifier]])) (C<sub>1</sub>, A<sub>1</sub>, R<sub>3</sub>).

Besides filtering, this stage serves also as an amplifier taking as input the current (I<sub>A1</sub>), and generating at the output an inverted voltage (V<sub>A1</sub>) based on the negative feedback resistance (R<sub>3</sub>): | Besides filtering, this stage serves also as an amplifier taking as input the current (I<sub>A1</sub>), and generating at the output an inverted voltage (V<sub>A1</sub>) based on the negative feedback resistance (R<sub>3</sub>): |
