The outbreak of wearable devices has pushed the market for wearable medical devices to the forefront, and in this area, many companies have brought new products to market. More and more companies are entering the market with equipment that measures heart rate, sleep quality and even nutrient levels in the blood. As products such as Nike, Jawbone, FitBit, iHealth, and other manufacturers provide data to help them measure and manage fitness levels, consumer demand for fitness wearable devices continues to grow.

At the same time, as a key link or human-machine interface of the Internet of Things (IoT), wearable devices can use the Internet of Things to transmit the collected personal data to the cloud in a continuous manner for real-time monitoring. Wearables are just one of many devices that take advantage of Internet connectivity. But this connectivity comes at a price: privacy. To ensure privacy, strong security measures are needed to prevent data and personal information from being stolen.

In order to better collect and transmit data, we have a higher level of demand for many technologies such as sensor, computing, communication and power management for wearable devices.

For wearable devices, collecting as much accurate data as possible is the most important part of a wearable medical application. This relies on a high-precision analog acquisition front end, so the sensor's role is irreplaceable. At the same time, wearable devices also have requirements for processing data and protecting the security of data. This requires manufacturers to optimize the design in all aspects.

According to Maxim, ultra-low-power analog measurement circuits, advanced processing and motion rejection algorithms running on low-power microcontrollers are the first step toward implementing wearable sensors because the signals from patients or users are usually small. And full of analog noise signals that need to be filtered out. At the same time, after filtering out the noise, since the data reflects the most private information, it must be secured to prevent it from being obtained by others. After the data is securely protected by advanced encryption technology, the data is sent to the mobile phone over a short-range wireless connection. Efficient power management of the internal battery (eg Maxim's ModelGauge) and energy harvesting technology keep the sensor working for long periods of time.

Decrypting Maxim's Guide to Wearable Medical Devices

Maxim has his own unique insights and attempts in these areas:

(1) Ultra low power analog measurement

Analog circuits are interfaces from real-world signals to microcontrollers. Low-power, high-precision amplifiers (such as Maxim's MAX9617 family) feature low power, low noise, zero offset, and ultra-small packages. This family of amplifiers minimizes solution size and eliminates the need for calibration throughout the entire process.

(2) Advanced processing / algorithm

Maxim believes that medical researchers have worked hard over the past decade to make machines play a bigger role in the medical field, and have developed algorithms that accurately identify information about the human body. With these results, human information can be collected and pre-processed using a simple microcontroller to prepare for expert diagnosis.
