Description

The MAX86160 is an integrated heart rate monitor sensormodule designed for the demanding requirements ofmobile, wearable, and hearable devices. It includesinternal LEDs, photo-detector, and low-noise electronicswith high-dynamic-range ambient light rejection. Thisintegrated product has evaluation software availablethat includes algorithms for detecting heart rate. TheMAX86160 sensor module takes care of the most challengingparts of the design for fast time-to-market inmobile and wearable devices.The MAX86160 operates on a 1.8V supply voltage, with a separate 3.3V/5.0V power supply for the internal LEDs. Communication to and from the module occurs entirely through a standard I²C-compatible interface. The module can be shut down through software with near zero standby current, allowing the power rails to remain powered at all times.ApplicationsWearable and Hearable DevicesSmartphones/TabletsDisposable Patch SensorsFitness Assistant Devices
