Abstract
A personal medical device supporting continuous biosignals monitoring is presented. The novelty of this paper is to provide an intelligent electrode suitable for long-term ECG monitoring. The proposed intelligent electrode is composed of an ASIC chip and a micro pikes array established on a gauze plaster substrate. By comparing the signal quality, the patients comfort and convenience, the proposed intelligent electrode could be an alternative to the traditional adhesive electrode. A prototype for the intelligent electrode is built up based on programmable FPAA and FPGA chips.
