DS3800HRTA is a Pulse Rate Input Card manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark IV Series used in GE Speedtronic Gas Turbine Control Systems. A Pulse Rate Input Card is an electronic device used in various applications to measure and monitor the pulse rate of individuals. It is commonly employed in medical settings, fitness equipment, and wearable devices. The card typically features a sensor, such as a photoplethysmograph (PPG) sensor or a heart rate monitor, which detects changes in blood volume within the blood vessels. This sensor works by emitting and detecting light, usually in the red or infrared spectrum, through the skin. When blood flows through the vessels, it absorbs the light differently, and the sensor can analyze these variations to calculate the pulse rate. The Pulse Rate Input Card may also include additional circuitry and components, like amplifiers and filters, to process the signal and ensure accurate and reliable readings. The processed data is then sent to the main system or microcontroller for further analysis and display.
FEATURES:
Pulse Rate Measurement: The primary function of the card is to measure the pulse rate of the user. It uses a sensor, such as a PPG sensor or heart rate monitor, to detect changes in blood volume and calculate the heart rate in beats per minute (BPM).
Real-Time Monitoring: Pulse Rate Input Cards provide real-time monitoring, allowing users to see their pulse rate instantaneously during exercise or any other activity.
Accuracy Enhancements: Advanced signal processing techniques, including amplifiers and filters, are incorporated to improve the accuracy and reliability of pulse rate measurements.
Compatibility: Many Pulse Rate Input Cards are designed to be compatible with a wide range of devices and systems, enabling seamless integration into various applications and equipment.
User-Friendly Interface: The devices typically have user-friendly interfaces with intuitive controls and clear displays for easy operation.
