Equipment Overview
CPU Motorola MC68832

The Motorola MC68832 (CPU) 32-bit micro controller is the core of the MAC 400
resting ECG analysis system. The CPU interacts with SRAM, PROM, EEPROM,
RTC, FPGA, thermal printer interface, keyboard interface, display interface, audible
tone and DSP (isolated side). A 32.768KHz crystal provides the reference clock
signal for the clock synthesizer of the CPU.
Memory
Memory on the MAC 400 system includes SRAM, PROM, and Serial EEPROM.
PROM stores the code for the CPU and serial EEPROM stores configuration data.
Real-time clock (RTC)

The RTC4574 has an internal 32.768KHz crystal unit. Serial communication
between CPU and RTC4574 through the I/O port of the CPU is used to exchange
time and date information between the CPU and RTC. RTC has an accuracy of +/one minute per month. When the device is turned off, the RTC battery powers the
RTC to keep track of the time and date. The battery is a 3V Lithium Ion coin battery
with 255mAH capacity, which can supply power to the clock for a minimum of five
years.
Audible tone (beep) generator

The audible tone generator is F/TCW 05 manufactured by DIGISOUND. The CPU
controls the beep by enabling it under the following circumstances:
The beep sounds once when the self-test is complete.
The beep sounds once every five seconds when the leads are not connected.
The beep sounds once every five seconds to indicate the printer door open,
battery and paper error conditions.
The beep sounds once for every QRS peak detected when the heart rate is
within the specified limits.
NOTE
Pressing the QRS beep key disables the audible tone. Turning off the QRS beep
in configuration settings also disables the audible tone for QRS complex.
Keyboard
The keyboard contains the following control keys: up cursor, down cursor, right
cursor, left cursor, enter, config, lead selection, copy, QRS beep, print start/stop.
The on/off key is not part of the matrix.
There are two LEDs on the keyboard one green and one yellow.
2036039-001D
The green LED indicates that the system is connected to active mains.
(all systems)
On non-Chinese systems, the yellow LED indicates that the battery voltage is
below 6.8V +/- 2%.
MAC 400

Equipment Overview
A yellow LED will illuminate continuously when battery is fully charged

or not charging. It will flash when battery voltage falls below 6.8V +/- 2%.
(Chinese systems only)
Display
The alphanumeric interface displays on a 16X2 character liquid-crystal display
powered by +5V supply. The character format is 5X7 dots plus the cursor, and the
viewing angle is six oclock. The display type is a reflective green STN.
FPGA
The CPU-thermal printer interface, CPU-display enable logic, CPU-motor driver IC
interface are all implemented in FPGA. The CLKOUT signal is the clock signal for
logic implemented and has an output frequency of 16.7MHz.
Thermal printer and motor assembly interface

The device is equipped with a Fujitsu thermal printer and motor assembly with 576
dots, thermistor for thermal printhead temperature, paper cue sensor and door platen
sensor. There is a serial data interface between the thermal printer and the FPGA.
The strobe compensation circuit modulates the strobe pulse width in accordance
with battery voltage, speed and temperature of the thermal printhead. The strobe
pulse width decides the time for which the dots are heated. The voltage supply to the
printhead and motor is cut off when the battery voltage falls below 6V and the
thermal printhead is overheated, or by the CPU control in case of error conditions.
The motor is a bipolar stepper powered by an IC driver that moves the paper at
speeds of 5, 25 or 50mm/s.
ECG recording and pre-processing

The ECG acquisition side is isolated from the non-isolated side by 8mm of
separation. There is no electrical conduction path between the isolated and nonisolated sections, except a 68M-ohm resistor provided as a path for the leakage
current. Opto-couplers provide communication between the CPU and DSP. The
transformer provides magnetic coupling between non-isolated +5V supply and
+5V_ISO and +3.3V_ISO for power transfer. The main components of the isolated
side are:

+1.8V
A step-up transformer is used to transfer power from the non-isolated side to the
isolated side. The voltages generated on the acquisition side are +5V_ISO,
+3.3V_ISO and +1.8V. Communication between DSP and CPU follows SPI
protocol by transmitting signals optically using Opto-couplers.
Connector J1 connects the ECG leads to the MAC 400 system. The system supports
10 leadwire ECG cables. Diodes connected in series offer electrostatic discharge
protection. A probe ID circuit detects whether the cable is connected. A lead-fail
bias circuit detects when a particular lead is not connected. The right leg drive
circuit generates the reference signal for all the leads. Instrumentation amplifiers
provide the required gain. An 8:1 multiplexer selects the eight channels one by one.
The ADC samples each sample and sends the digitized data to CPU. The signal
chain in DSP includes notch filter, DC filter, low pass filter, down sampling and line
frequency filter. Serial EEPROM is used to store DSP code. A 20MHz external
crystal provides the reference clock signal to DSP.
Internal interfaces
This section describes the interface signals between the PCB assembly and external
modules.
