Obtaining QRS Complexes<br />
The QRS complex has to be detected in<br />
every heartbeat. This complex is the highest<br />
peak generated from the heart waveform.<br />
Although the signal has been filtered and<br />
amplified, it is necessary to include a digital<br />
band-pass filter with a bandwidth of 10 Hz<br />
to 25 Hz to remove high-frequency noise and<br />
low-frequency drift. Afterwards, filtering a<br />
derivation is implemented and a threshold is<br />
taken to determine whether the data is part of<br />
the QRS signal.<br />

Heart Rate Monitor Design<br />
For more information on how to design a<br />
heart rate monitor, refer to AN4323: <strong>Freescale</strong><br />
solutions for Electrocardiograph and Heart<br />
Rate Monitor <strong>Applications</strong>.<br />
This application note describes how to use the<br />
MED-EKG development board, a highly efficient<br />
board that can be connected to the <strong>Freescale</strong><br />
Tower System to obtain an electrocardiogram<br />
signal and measure heart rate.<br />
The application is implemented using<br />
either the MK53N512, MC9S08MM128 or<br />
MCF51MM256 MCUs.<br />
