Smart Amp PPG
Part #: PPG100D

The PPG Pulse Plethysmography Smart Amplifier is specifically designed for recording signals from a pulse transducer. In addition to high-quality raw PPG, AcqKnowledge software setup offers configurable, optionally-enabled, software-derived Pulse Rate and adjustment of default frequencies and settings.

BIOPAC’s new Smart Amplifiers are designed for great data. Smart Amplifiers improve performance by amplifying the physiological signal close to the subject, which allows a high-level voltage connection to the data acquisition system and reduces noise artifact.

AcqKnowledge Smart Amp setup includes guides and prompts to prevent errors. Plus, channels are automatically set to be plotted and included in input values display, with the initial visual range set to the min/max input range for that Smart Amplifier signal type, in appropriate units.

Connect to BN-PULSE-XDCR or BN-PULSEEAR-XDCR transducers from the proven BN Series of accessories.

The Smart Amplifier may be attached to the subject either using the included Velcro backed clip or optional Velcro straps around the subject. The amplifier terminates with a 3 m long cable and connects to the AMI100D Amplifier Input Module.

Compatibility


Reduced wiring in Smart Amp setups reduces ambient and common mode noise, increases comfort, and improves the group dynamic!

Smart Amplifiers connect to an MP160 Research System via an Amplifier Interface Module (AMI100D); Smart Amps are not compatible with MP150, MP100, HLT100C, or MP36R devices. For output, add CBL237 with OUTISO or similar. AcqKnowledge Smart Amp setup includes guides and prompts to prevent errors. Plus, channels are automatically set to be plotted and included in input values display, with the initial visual range set to the min/max input range for the Smart Amplifier signal type, in appropriate units. AcqKnowledge 5.0.4 and above support Smart Amp functionality.
