Medical Patch

A secure and reusable medical patch for connected healthcare provides body temperature, oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate monitoring over a secure Bluetooth^® connection. This medical patch uses a rechargeable Li-ion battery for a small profile and enhanced reusability. An on-board battery charger uses a commonly available USB port for better charging accessibility.

System Benefits​:

• MCU with integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5.0 for secure connectivity.
• Optimized for low current consumption and longer battery life using a 20mAh flexible pouch battery.
• High-accuracy temperature sensing (±0.5 °C).
• Photoplethysmography (PPG) and proximity sensor for monitoring of essential bio data such as heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation (SpO2) with ±3.5% accuracy.
• On-board Li-ion battery charger IC to recharge and monitor the battery with built in protection features.
• Supports firmware updates via USB.

Target Applications:

• Personal wearable health monitor
• Medical health monitor
