The MAX30001 is a complete， biopotential and bioimpedance （BioZ）， analog front-end （AFE） solution for wearable applications. It offers high performance for clinical and fitness applications， with ultra-low power for long battery life. The MAX30001 is a single biopotential channel providing electrocardiogram （ECG） waveforms， heart rate and pacemaker edge detection， and a single bioimpedance channel capable of measuring respiration.

The biopotential and bioimpedance channels have ESD protection， EMI filtering， internal lead biasing， DC leads-off detection， ultra-low-power， leads-on detection during standby mode， and extensive calibration voltages for built-in self-test. Soft power-up sequencing ensures no large transients are injected into the electrodes. Both channels also have high input impedance， low noise， high CMRR， programmable gain， various low-pass and high-pass filter options， and a high resolution analog-to-digital converter. The biopotential channel is DC coupled， can handle large electrode voltage offsets， and has a fast recovery mode to quickly recover from overdrive conditions， such as defibrillation and electro-surgery. The bioimpedance channel includes integrated programmable current drive， works with common electrodes， and has the flexibility for 2 or 4 electrode measurements. It also has AC lead off detection.The MAX30001 is available in a 28-pin TQFN and 30-bump wafer-level package （WLP）， operating over the0℃ to +70℃ commercial temperature range.
