Pulse Sensor with

Arduino
Pulse Sensor
• Pulse Sensor Amped is a plug-
and-play heart-rate sensor for
Arduino and Arduino
compatibles.
• Pulse Sensor Amped works with
either a 3V or 5V Arduino
• Specification
• Diameter = 0.625" (~16mm)
• Overall thickness = 0.125"
(~3mm)
• Working Voltage = 3V to 5V
• Working Current = ~4mA at 5V
Pinout Details
• you can see the s, + and - on
pulse sensor's back view as
shown in the picture above.
• S : signal, connected to any
of your microcontroller's
digital pin.
• + : supply, 3V up to 5V
• - : ground
Link
• Downloads
• You download the ARduino code
from https://github.com/WorldFamousElectronics/PulseSens
or_Amped_Arduino and there is also a very useful processing
example which shows a graphical representation , you can get

Pulse Sensor to Arduino
ECG Sensor
• The AD8232 is an integrated
signal conditioning block for ECG
and other biopotential
measurement applications.
• It is designed to extract,
amplify, and filter small
biopotential signals in the
presence of noisy conditions.
