ECG-SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS
INPUT MULTIPLEXER (REROUTING THE RIGHT LEG DRIVE SIGNAL)
The input multiplexer has ECG-specific functions for the right-leg drive signal. The RLD signal is available at the
RLDOUT pin once the appropriate channels are selected for the RLD derivation, feedback elements are installed
external to the chip, and the loop is closed. This signal can be fed after filtering or fed directly into the RLDIN pin
as shown in Figure 42. This RLDIN signal can be multiplexed into any one of the input electrodes by setting the
MUX bits of the appropriate channel set registers to 110 for P-side or 111 for N-side. Figure 42 shows the RLD
signal generated from channels 1, 2, and 3 and routed to the N-side of channel 8. This feature can be used to
dynamically change the electrode that is used as the reference signal to drive the patient body. Note that the
corresponding channel cannot be used and can be powered down.
