Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAXM86161 Optical Bio Sensor

Analog Devices MAXM86161 Optical Bio-Sensor is a complete optical data-acquisition system in a single ultra-low-power module. The MAXM86161 Bio-Sensor is specifically targeted for in-ear medical applications and is optimized to detect Heart Rate (HR), Oxygen Saturation (SpO2), and Heart Rate Variability (HRV). 

On the transmitter side, the MAXM86161 has three programmable high-current LED drivers. On the receiver side, MAXM86161 consists of a high-efficiency PIN photodiode and an optical readout channel. The optical readout has a low-noise signal conditioning Analog Front-end (AFE), including a 19-bit ADC (Analog to Digital Converter), a high-performance Ambient Light Cancellation (ALC) circuit, and a picket fence detect and replace algorithm. Due to the low power consumption, compact size, easy, flexible-to-use, and ambient light rejection capability of the MAXM86161, the device is ideal for various optical sensing applications such as heart rate detection and pulse oximetry.

The MAXM86161 operates on a 3.0V to 5.5V VLED single supply voltage. It supports a standard compatible interface and fully autonomous operation. Each device has a large 128-word built-in FIFO.

The Analog Devices MAXM86161 Optical Bio-Sensor is offered in a miniature 14-pin Organic Land Grid Array (OLGA) package and is lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
