As portability becomes a growing trend in medical products,
manufacturers are seeking technologies that reduce the design
complexity and time in developing the finished product. In most
of these medical equipments, the actual physiological signals
are analog and require signal conditioning techniques, such as
amplification and filtering, before they can be measured, monitored,
or displayed. The MSP430 microcontroller MCU offers a platform
of ultra-low-power processors with the high integration of the complete
signal chain that is required for applications such as personal
blood pressure monitors, spirometers, pulsoximeters, and heart
rate monitors.
